CREDE Standards Reflected in Instructional Strategies for ELLs

Reflect on the CREDE standards for effective pedagogy, as presented by Dr. Roland Tharp. These standards emphasize the importance of the student/teacher relationship, types of interactions students have in the classroom, and nature of the curricular materials. Creating what Dr. Tharp calls a "CREDE classroom" can ensure that all of your students, including ELLs, have high-quality learning experiences. Further, this week’s Learning Resources present a wide variety of specific instructional strategies you can employ to foster the academic achievement of ELLs in your classroom. Examine the strategies presented in the course text, 50 Strategies for Teaching English Language Learners, focusing specifically on how the approaches demonstrate the CREDE standards for effective pedagogy. Choose two strategies that you believe exemplify one or more of the CREDE standards, and think about how these strategies might be helpful for the students in your classroom.

With these thoughts in mind, follow the instructions below to post your response to this Discussion topic.
? Post a description of at least two strategies that you believe demonstrate one (or more) of the CREDE standards, explaining how you think the standard(s) can be met by using these strategies. Also, explain why you think these strategies will effectively support ELLs in your class and list any recommendations, questions, or concerns you might have for implementation.
