Chapter 8 Reading Mindmap By Sharon Yan Jiang
What's balance approach to literacy instruction?
A balanced approach to literacy recognized the need for some direct instruction in reading skills, but emphasizes the importance of providing such instruction in meaningful contexts to ensure that students are able to comprehend and use what they read for authentic purposes.
The emphasis on meaning and comprehension makes balanced literacy approaches particularly important for ELLs.
A balanced approach recognizes that phonics is just one component of learning to read.
The teachers- not scripted curriculum programs-should determine which students need direct instruction on specific phonics skills.
How can teachers assess reading and use assessment results to guide instruction ?
Teachers must use formative assessments to continually monitor their reading.

How does reading promote English language development?
Reading is an excellent source of comprehensible input that enhances English language development
Students have a virtually unlimited number of opportunities to encounter written English through books, magazines, newspapers, the Internet, and other written sources.
ELLs have much greater control over what they read than over what they hear. They can choose the topic and the level of difficulty of the text they read.
Students can take time to figure out the meaning of new words and structures by looking up words in a dictionary, asking a teacher or friend, or figuring out the meaning from the context.
Students will also encounter words, phrases, and structures that are unlikely to occur in spoken English.
Research finding highlights the advantages of home language literacy in developing literacy in English.
What does the research tell us about effective reading instruction for ELLs?
Literacy instruction approaches for mainstream students are not sufficient for ELLs.
English oral language development is critical for English literacy development beyond word-level skills
Literacy instruction must be combined with high-quality ESL instruction.
Oral proficiency and literacy in the first language is an advantage for literacy development in English
Individual differences contribute significantly to English literacy development
Most literacy assessments do a poor job of gauging ELL strengths and weakness.
Home language experiences can have a positive impact on literacy achievement.
Effective literacy instruction for ELLs provides direct instruction in interactive learning environments.
How can state college-and-career-readiness content standards and English language development standards from WIDA, ELPA21, and individual states guide reading instruction for ELLs?
