The NTI AEC started the academic year with a managed enrollment program for students enrolled in ESL and GED classes on campus. The transition provided a platform for our team to have professional conversations when it came to developing a student-centered approach to classroom structure. As the GED faculty team, we will share noteworthy reflections and tools related to math and language instruction and to the facilitation of productive staff dialogue.

Abstract:
The integration of the English language within math content is essential for assisting ESL/ELL students to develop a good understanding of mathematics. This workshop brings participants into a curriculum integrating the study of mathematics and English vocabulary with hands-on and collaborative activities using manipulatives. We’ll give ESL/ELL students alternate ways to participate in whole-class discussions and respond to questions: think/pair/share, flashcards to raise overhead, hand and/or body movements, individual chalkboards for solving computations. Participants are engaged with numeracy lessons that balance between skill building and functional needs. Examples contextualize math instruction, motivate and engage by providing real or concrete meaning, and create a rewarding balance for instruction. ESL/ELL students accomplish two goals: mathematical understanding and English proficiency.

Do you get frustrated with students using their cell phones in class? Turn that problem into a possibility! Students come alive as they work in teams with student team leaders using their cell phones as game controllers. I’ve never had more fun in class than when doing these Kahoot! quizzes, and the students love them! It’s a great way to get students to interact with each other and to review. As a teacher, you can see how well the students are learning. These quizzes are designed to correlate with the “I’m Not Afraid . . . Anymore!” curriculum for GED®-HSE Math and Writing, and ESL Writing, but they can be used with, or modified for, other curriculum. Come Kahoot! with us in this presentation and join the fun.You must be logged in to download this resource. Register now if you don't have an account.

Many Adult Basic Education (ABE) classes include students who are non-native English speakers. These English Language Learners (ELLs) often need different teaching approaches or additional support to be successful in ABE classes. This session from the 2016 COABE Conference explores the needs of ELLs and many ways ABE instructors can teach and support them. ATTACHMENTS: Teach Support ELLs in ABE COABE 2016 Martin
