This sequence targets the analytical skills required to dismantle multiple-choice questions for 7th Grade ESL learners. Students move from understanding the anatomy of a question to identifying common logical fallacies and 'trap' answers, utilizing game-based learning and deductive reasoning.

This sequence teaches 6th-grade ESL students the essential test-taking strategies of skimming and scanning. Through a 'Speed Scout' academy theme, students learn to navigate academic texts efficiently, identifying when to look for the 'gist' versus specific details to save time and improve accuracy on standardized tests.

A 2nd-grade ESL sequence focused on academic discourse, teaching students to state opinions, cite evidence, and engage in respectful debate using structured sentence frames.

A 5-lesson sequence for 2nd Grade ESL students focusing on the precise academic language needed for scientific observation, classification, and description. Students move from basic sensory adjectives to sophisticated properties of materials and comparative analysis.

A 2nd-grade ESL sequence focused on transition words, past-tense verbs, and comparative language to help students sequence events and describe historical changes. Students move from daily routines to community history and final narrative projects.

This sequence targets the mathematical vocabulary required for comparing quantities and describing spatial relationships for 2nd grade ESL students. It integrates movement and manipulatives to help students internalize language for math discourse.

A 5-lesson sequence for 2nd Grade ESL students to master academic language for expressing cause-and-effect relationships in science through hands-on inquiry and scaffolded writing.

A comprehensive ESL sequence for 1st graders focusing on the academic language of spatial relationships, directional movement, and map literacy within a Social Studies context. Students progress from basic positional words to navigating and creating their own maps.

This sequence introduces 1st Grade ESL students to academic sequencing vocabulary. Students learn to use temporal transitions like 'first', 'next', 'then', and 'finally' to describe daily routines, scientific life cycles, and procedural instructions.

A first-grade ESL sequence focusing on academic language for cause and effect. Students move from simple identification to using complex sentence structures like 'because' and 'if... then' to explain social and scientific phenomena.

A first-grade ESL sequence focusing on academic language for mathematical comparisons. Students progress from physical attributes like length and weight to abstract concepts of quantity and equality, using structured sentence frames and hands-on activities.

A 1st Grade ESL sequence focused on the language of scientific inquiry. Students learn to use precise sensory and classification vocabulary to describe physical properties of matter, culminating in a descriptive field guide.

A multi-sensory, color-coded approach to reading comprehension. Students learn to systematically deconstruct informational texts using a tri-color system: green for main ideas, yellow for supporting details, and red for unknown vocabulary.

A sequence for intermediate ESL students to master complex sentence structures in oral storytelling. Students transition from choppy, simple sentences to fluid narratives using conjunctions, transitions, and relative clauses.

This sequence strengthens sentence complexity by introducing Relative Clauses with 'who', 'which', and 'that'. Students move beyond simple sentences to compound descriptions that identify specific people or objects through games and creative writing.

This sequence utilizes sketching as a concrete scaffold for students who struggle to hold images in their working memory. Known as 'Sketch-to-Stretch,' this approach allows students to externalize their thinking immediately after reading small chunks of text. By drawing what they read, students can self-monitor for understanding; if they cannot draw it, they likely did not comprehend it.

A Kindergarten sequence focused on visual literacy to teach prediction and inference. Students use picture clues from book covers and wordless stories to anticipate what happens next, developing critical thinking and observation skills through a 'Picture Detective' theme.
