What we know about ELs

• In 1998, 30 of Hispanic students dropped out
  compared to 14 for African Americans and 8 for
  Whites (8) (Ruiz-de-Velasco Fix, 2000).
• Garcia (1993) suggests that this high dropout
  rate may be a direct result of the achievement
  gap, partially created by a lack of vocabulary
  skills.

EL Demographics

• Nearly one of every 5 students entering U.S.
  schools speaks a language other than English.

• One in 10 is born outside the U.S. (2000 Census)

• One in 3 school children is from an ethnic or
  racial minority group.

  observations.

SIOP Teacher Feedback

• I saw one teacher get a lesson back on track by
  pointing to the objectives and stating that they
  had a lot to cover so they needed to stay
  focused. (Arizona)
• It's a basic learning styles issue.  Some
  students are more visual learners so seeing the
  objectives will register with them when hearing
  the objectives may not. (Arkansas)
