Additional Website

As I was doing my research for my final paper on Language Acquisition I found some interesting websites that I felt had a lot to offer. One website that I found particularly useful was one produced by the Northwest Regional Educational Laboratory(NWREL), which was entitled "General Principles for Teaching ELL Students" The website was very helpful for my paper on language acquisition and they have a list of ten guidelines to follow as a teacher of ELL students such as the importance of routines and to remember to use a lot gestures and visual aids. If you are interested the other ten are listed along with information on language acquisition the website is

The website is very clearly laid out and has some really great ideas. Hope you guys find it as interesting as I did.
