Content Objectives
Participants will be able to:• Select learning strategies appropriate to a
lesson’s objectives• Incorporate explicit instruction and student
practice of metacognitive and cognitive strategies in lesson plans
• Recognize the value of scaffolding instruction and identify techniques to scaffold for verbal, procedural, and instructional understanding

Language Objectives
• Identify learning strategies to use with students
• Discuss the importance of asking higher-order questions to students of all proficiency levels
• Write a set of questions with increasing levels of difficulty on one topic

Research Findings
• All second language learners use strategies
– BUT
• “Good” language learners use more varied strategies and use them more flexibly.
• Frequent use of learning strategies is correlated to higher self-efficacy.
• Strategy instruction improves academic performances.

Why teach strategies?
• ELLs focusing mental energy on their developing language skills, not on developing independence in learning.
• Therefore, provide opportunities for students to use a variety of strategies– Teach strategies explicitly– Model strategy use– Explain how, when, and why strategy used
![Page 7: Strategies Teaching students to use special thoughts or actions to Assist learning tasks Understand, remember, recall new information Practice skills efficiently](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649c985503460f94954990/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Learning Strategies• Metacognitive
– Purposefully monitoring our thinking. It is a technique of “thinking about how you think.”
• Cognitive – Organizing information. Mentally and/or physically
manipulate materials, or apply a specific technique to a learning task.
• Social/Affective– Social and affective influences on learning

While working on a task:• Check your progress• Check your
comprehension• Check your production
![Page 11: Strategies Teaching students to use special thoughts or actions to Assist learning tasks Understand, remember, recall new information Practice skills efficiently](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649c985503460f94954990/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Metacognitive Strategies
Evaluation
After completing a task:• Assess how well you have accomplished
the task.• Assess how well you have used learning
strategies.• Decide how effective the strategies were.• Identify changes you will make next time.

• Cooperation
• Self -Talk
![Page 14: Strategies Teaching students to use special thoughts or actions to Assist learning tasks Understand, remember, recall new information Practice skills efficiently](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649c985503460f94954990/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Strategies
• Have a name you and your students use
• Have clearly defined steps
• Practiced regularly so they become automatic

Think – Pair – Share
• How was this different from your typical reading experience?
• How can this strategy help English language learners be successful?

Strategies Activity
• Use the strategies in Making Content Comprehensible or the summary, Strategies Teachers Say They Use.
• Select one strategy to use in your class.
• Develop an activity using that strategy
• Explain the activity to the group

Scaffolding• Form of support to bridge the gap between
students’ current abilities and the intended goal
• Support is more complete during the initial stages of learning but is decreased as there is less need for guidance
• Types:– verbal– procedural– instructional
![Page 21: Strategies Teaching students to use special thoughts or actions to Assist learning tasks Understand, remember, recall new information Practice skills efficiently](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022033104/56649c985503460f94954990/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Procedural Scaffolding
Increasing Student Independence
Teach
ModelPractice
Apply
According to Echevarria, Vogt, and Short (2000), teachers use an instructional framework that includes explicit teaching, modelingand practice that provide procedural scaffolding.

Procedural Scaffolding
Student Independence
Whole Class
Small Group
Paired/ Partner
Independent Work
Procedural scaffolding also refers to the use of grouping configurations that provide different levels of support to students as they gain greater levels of language proficiency andskills.

Questioning
Questioning techniques can elicit responses from students that involve higher-order thinking skills regardless of language level.

Video: Strategies
• What scaffolding techniques were used in the video?
• What specific strategy was used in this lesson? (Venn diagram, self-talk…)
• How could that strategy be used in other ways?• What types of questions did the teacher ask her
students?• Why is it important to ask higher order thinking
questions?
