NCTE Position Paper on the Role of English Teachers in Educating English Language Learners (ELLs)
This position paper, created by the NCTE ELL Task Force, addresses the knowledge and skills mainstream teachers need to have in order to develop effective curricula that engage English language learners, develop their academic skills, and help them negotiate their identities as bilingual learners. More specifically, this paper addresses the language and literacy needs of these learners as they participate and learn in English-medium classes.
