ELL seems to be one of the harder issues to handle in the educational field. How do teachers who typically speak English as their first and sometimes only language teach students who don't even know English yet? This chapter is especially effective because it covers all aspects of ELL students; they address language proficiency, specific differences between the linguistics of languages, and even differing cultural aspects of diverse students.
The best ideas that were presented in the chapter which I plan on using in my classroom someday are the "ways that cultivate cultural harmony." Each suggestion not only helped the ELL students and helped them feel more belonging, but they also benefit those who are not ELL students by informing them on how differing cultures work. These activities help all of the students to get to know each other better, learn more about cultures, and help to add variety to the classroom content.
