A2: Student choice is always a good way. Build in options like a menu for assignments that incorporate different learning styles. #ELLChat

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:16 PM EDT

A2) It's difficult to include 6 different learning styles into a single lesson. How do you do it? #ELLCHAT

dmarigutierrez Jun 26 @ 9:17 PM EDT

A2- for my beginner ELLs, visual, physical with the usage of manipulative support lang and content development. #ELLCHAT

dmarigutierrez Jun 26 @ 9:17 PM EDT

A2- each lesson and student groups requires various learning style usage #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A2) I agree that student choice is key. I'd also say that working in small groups helps differentiate learning according to style. #ELLCHAT

In reply to @HSeslteacher

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:18 PM EDT

A2. Start class w/ peer conversation on carpet, then allow Ss to move to flexible seating. Lessons full of visuals/videos. #ELLCHAT

Excuse my silence, going for a quick run but should be back before the chat is over! #ELLCHAT

Q3) How do you differentiate instruction for ELL who prefer auditory style? #ELLCHAT

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:24 PM EDT

Great point - Ss may be literate in L1 but struggle w/ English if they are used to a different learning style. We must be mindful. #ELLChat

A2) Resource: Teach to Students’ Learning Styles https://t.co/kZrDkKHPYX #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:26 PM EDT

A3) ELLs using auditory style learn by listening and speaking. They can recall what they hear. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A3) Auditory learners love songs, listening to stories, choral reading, #ELLCHAT

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:27 PM EDT

A3. Offer audio books (when available) as an option when reading. Also allow Ss to orally respond to questions on assessments. #ELLChat

HSeslteacher Jun 26 @ 9:28 PM EDT

A3: Books on tape, recordings, flipped lessons would address auditory learners. #ELLChat

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:28 PM EDT

I think that how ELLs learn in L1 may not translate well to beginning stages of learning English. #ELLCHAT

In reply to @theESLlady

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:30 PM EDT

A3) Auditory learners also love poems and riddles, oral discussions, group work. They prefer oral instructions. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:32 PM EDT

Q4) How do you differentiate instruction for visual EL learners? #ELLCHAT

Q4) Resource: 6 Types of ESL Learners and How to Teach Them https://t.co/el0eIRIhHW #ELLCHAT

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A4. I add images to daily task instructions to give Ss visual cues. For example a picture of a book next to the word reading. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:37 PM EDT

A4) Visual learners recall what they see & prefer written instructions. They're sight readers who enjoy reading silently. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:40 PM EDT

A4) Visual learners prefer computer graphics, maps, graphs, charts. graphic organizers, charts. Use text with lots of pictures. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:41 PM EDT

I agree! Any visual cue will help. I'll tell the "story" of their social studies lesson in my own words using picture cues. #ELLCHAT

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:36 PM EDT

Q5) How do you differentiate instruction for tactile/kinesthetic EL learners? #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:43 PM EDT

A5) Kinesthetic learners also learn by touching or manipulating objects.They like to use their whole body while learning. #ELLCHAT

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A4. Graphic organizers are a great option for Ss. After modeling, I put a variety in a place where Ss can help themselves. #ELLChat

Q5 reader's theater #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:48 PM EDT

A4) Use songs with movement/gestures, physical games, dance, plays to teach ELLs who are kinesthetic. #ELLCHAT

A5) Use songs with movement/gestures, physical games, dance, plays to teach ELLs who are kinesthetic. #ELLCHAT

A5. I try to include games where Ss can move around while learning or reviewing content. #ELLChat

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:50 PM EDT

A5) Yes! An excellent resource for kinesthetic ELLs. #ELLCHAT

Q6) What materials do you always have on hand in order to differentiate instruction for different learning styles? #ELLCHAT

theESLlady Jun 26 @ 9:55 PM EDT

A6. graphic organizers, picture dictionaries, iPads, and flexible seating. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:55 PM EDT

A6) I think having lots of visual and songs taught with gestures in your room will cover a lot of styles. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:56 PM EDT

A6) Also, routines that include cooperative learning will give students some control over how they learn the content. #ELLCHAT

suepetersen17 Jun 26 @ 9:57 PM EDT

IPADs can meet many learning styles. #ELLCHAT

judiehaynes - Moderator Jun 26 @ 9:58 PM EDT
