Differentiated Instruction for English Language Learners

This capstone project aims to support teachers who work with English Language Learners (ELLs), also known as English Learners (ELs). The goal of this capstone is to help teachers integrate differentiated instruction (DI) for ELLs into their regular lessons. The one-size-fits-all strategy teachers have been using for so long is no longer appropriate for our students' needs, preferences, and learning styles. To enhance students' learning, teachers must differentiate instruction and offer them a variety of learning opportunities. This capstone project shows that ELL students make academic progress when DI is implemented. Their success is influenced by the overall school setting, not just classroom instruction. Research in this project has revealed effective instructional strategies necessary to provide support to all ELLs in the classroom. These effective instructional strategies are also included in the professional development designed to help teachers at Discovery Charter School support ELLs.
