List 4 suggestions for working on spoken language activities with children who do not use English as a home language.
What will be an ideal response?
(1) For group activities, match English language learners with children who have strong English language skills. Also, make sure that all the children who speak the same home language are not grouped together. (2) Provide opportunities for unstructured conversations activities so that English language learners can choose activities of interest and that involve their language abilities. (3) Provide prompts for children when they are talking. When they need to find the truck, have a picture of a truck to show them if they are not yet familiar with that word. (4) Use open-ended prompts that can have multiple answers, so English language learners can expand their utterances. Use, "Which hat do you like the best?" instead of "Why do we wear this hat?"
