English language learners (ELLs)¿students who speak a language other than English at home and enter school scoring below proficient on English assessments¿are among the fastest growing populations in US schools. It is critical that these students receive systemic support as needed to overcome the challenges associated with being non-native English speakers. Response To Intervention is an ideal framework for educators working with ELLs. Moreover, when RTI is used in a classroom, all students benefit. Written by Seth Aldrich, RTI & ELLs is a six-page, quick-reference laminated guide that provides guidance on how teachers can use RTI to support ELLs, from differentiated instruction to ensure learning is accessible to all, to curriculum-based measurement (CBM) to gauge student learning, to targeted, tiered academic and behavioral interventions and supports. This recently updated guide has individual sections listing specific recommendations for ¿Differentiating instruction for ELLs (Tier 1) ¿Tier 2 & Tier 3 academic strategies ¿RTI academic assessment tools for ELLs ¿RTI behavioral supports ¿Tier 1, 2 & 3 behavioral strategies ¿Developing a schoolwide plan to support ELLs through RTI In addition, it provides a sample Daily Behavior Report Card (DBRC) that can be reproduced and used to monitor student behavior, provide feedback, and increase home-school communication.

English Language Proficiency Assessments for Young Learners provides both theoretical and empirical information about assessing the English language proficiency of young learners.

In this volume, young learners are defined as school-age children from approximately 5 to 13 years old, learning English as a foreign language (EFL) or a second language (ESL). This volume also discusses innovative ways to assess young learners’ English language abilities based on empirical studies, with each chapter offering stimulating ideas for future research and development work to improve English language assessment practices with young learners. English Language Proficiency Assessments for Young Learners is a useful resource for students, test developers, educators, and researchers in the area of language testing and assessment.

This hands-on book offers teachers a much-needed resource that will help maximize learning for English Language Learners (ELLs). How to Teach English Language Learners draws on two wide-ranging teacher quality studies and profiles eight educators who have achieved exceptional results with their ELL students. Through highly readable portraits, the authors take readers into these teachers' classrooms, illustrating richly what it is they do differently that yields such great results from English learners. Because most teachers profiled work within a three-tiered Response-to-Intervention framework, the book shows how to implement RTI effectively with ELLs—from providing general reading instruction for the entire classroom to targeted interventions with struggling students. Written by noted ELL educators Diane Haager, Janette K. Klingner, and Terese Aceves, How to Teach English Language Learners is filled with inspiring success stories, teaching tips, activities, discussion questions, and reflections from these outstanding teachers.

This publication explores issues and makes recommendations related to meeting the needs of English learners with limited language proficiency or learning disabilities, or both. The authors begin by noting the current federal policy context in which this discussion of reading instruction and interventions for English language learners (ELLs) occurs. Then they discuss how English language learners are identified and classified and raise related assessment issues. They follow that with a discussion of issues in identifying English language learners with disabilities and concerns associated with assessing ELLs' academic achievements and their language proficiency accurately. Finally, they review recent research on instruction and interventions for ELLs and offer recommendations for interventions in the context of the Response to Intervention model. They close with some consideration of professional development issues. Appended are: (1) Studies on interventions for children identified with disabilities; and (2) Intervention for students identified as at risk. (Contains 2 tables and 9 footnotes.).
