WRITTEN VS. AUDIO VS. MOVIE

DIRECTIONSSome of your ELLs may be

conversationally fluent in English but struggle with reading in this language. In addition to giving them written directions

in English, you can provide an activity sheet or assignment that will link to a URL where they can hear the directions read aloud for them. You may decide to try

this strategy if your students are stronger readers and you want them to practice

their listening skills. Another option is to provide audio directions for students in their native language so that they can focus on the task at hand rather than

struggle with following written directions.
