Summary

The growing population of English Language Students within Tennessee has shown the need for quality instruction in classrooms. Assessments provide teachers with essential knowledge to inform instruction. The exploration of instructional strategies for Multi-Lingual Learners can come directly from assessment scores on English Screeners. We used data from a middle-school, sheltered MLL classroom, based on WIDA and Schoology. From this, we were able to observe and choose interventions that provided the least restrictive environment for student flourishing.
