In the core booklets they have an option for ELL students and for students who are below, above, and meeting grade standards. If the school district does not use baseline, I can teach books to the entire class or just the individual student in a book related to their culture, that way the book is more engaging and the ELL student can engage in the readings. I can also have what some teachers call a word wall. Throughout the classroom, teachers can label the room just as they label the desk, chalkboard, wall, and chair. What I would do to accommodate this problem for my ELL student, I can also put his language next to the word English. For example, I will label the desk “desk” and right next to it it will be labeled “escritorio”. This way the ELL will feel included in the class and will understand the English language better when I do the comparison
