A major concept for working with English Language Learners and
communicating with their parents. Use this with the next site that
will allow any teacher or learner to get an instant Spanish
translation of any text, up to four pages at a time, or web site.
Texts, or portions of texts, can be scanned and translated, tests,
etc. |
|
FreeTranslation.com - Free translation of web sites and text for
Spanish, French, and German to English, and English to Spanish. |

Strategies - An important part of effective biliteracy and sheltered
instruction strategies. |
|
Cooperative and Collaborative Learning - Effective with all subjects
and levels. Team leaning is a particularly strong supporting
strategy in working with English language learners. |
