Читать книгу Equitable Access for English Learners, Grades K-6 - Mary Soto - Страница 14

In the process of developing this book, we performed our own analysis of widely used basal series. This analysis informed the conclusions of the following subsections of this chapter.

Basal programs and alternative programs include instructions for teaching the lessons to emergent bilinguals. Some suggestions for ELs are typically included in a given program’s teacher’s guide as part of the instructions for each selection. However, teachers are often directed to look in another section of the guide for more detailed ideas for ELs. In addition, major basal programs provide suggestions for English learners in a separate resource book. To develop their lessons, then, teachers have to consult two sections of the teacher’s guide plus a separate document.
