Teaching Strategies 1) Visual Scaffolding: Providing Language Support Through Visual Images And 2) Collecting and Processing Words: Making Language Your Own By Dawn M Donahue EDU215 Teaching English Language Learners Dr. Laura Taddei Visual Scaffolding Providing Language Support Through Visuals Images Visual Scaffolding DEFINITION: An approach in which the language used in instruction is made more understandable by the display of drawings or photographs that allow students to hear English words and connect them to the visual images being displayed. Visual Scaffolding EXAMPLES Visual Scaffolding IMPLEMENTATION STEPS: 2. Collect Visuals 3. Reproduce and Organize Visuals 4. Engage the Students 5. Build the File Visual Scaffolding For an Oceanography lesson, I chose the Book Commotion in the Ocean by Giles Andreae & David Wojtowycz for my example… Visual Scaffolding Identify Vocabulary Visual Scaffolding Before reading the story, I would break the class into groups. I have already premade group story boards from pictures of our story, Commotion in the Ocean. Each group would get a story board with the reproduced characters from the story. As I read the story, I would emphasize the vocabulary words and ask the group to also hold up the replica picture to show that they are identifying the picture with the vocabulary word. Visual Scaffolding The story boards would be engaging the children and we could keep the felt story boards to use on their own for constructive free play, which would build the file for them! Collecting and Processing Words Making Vocabulary Your Own Collecting and Processing Words Definition: Collecting words is a strategy for helping children develop better speaking and writing vocabularies. It also serves to support their understanding of words that have the same or similar meanings. By "collecting" words, students are constantly building a collection of words and word meanings that will serve to increase their understanding of oral language and improve and strengthen their spoken vocabulary and eventually their writing skills. Collecting and Processing Words Examples Collecting and Processing Words Collecting and Processing Words I chose to use the same book, Commotion in the Ocean by Giles Andreae & David Wojtowycz. Collecting and Processing Words In reading the story, Commotion in the Ocean, I would set up a word chart, to chart words the students would get stuck on.
