Designed as a supplemental resource, this student facing platform provides the opportunity for students to listen to texts and articles on various topics through different genres.
This strategy provides students with the opportunity to engage in rich, peer-to-peer, conversations with their classmates. This resource includes an overview of the strategy and clear directions to support implementation.
During this activity, students brainstorm what they know about a given topic. After engaging with text, they revisit their brainstorm and identify words, ideas, etc. that were used in the text.
LanguageScreen is an early language assessment developed by the University of Oxford that measures Expressive Vocabulary, Listening Comprehension, Receptive Vocabulary, and Sentence Repetition.
In this activity students will evaluate their understanding of a text they have heard. If students are having difficulty with understanding they will choose a “fix up” strategy.
