What strategies do you see from our Bilingualism and Biliteracy class?
I could see five different strategies:
1. Teaching through content
2. The activity was student-centered
3. The activity was meaningful and with a real purpose
4. Social interaction
5. High expectations
What are the most effective?
From my point of view the most effective strategies were Teaching Through Content, Social Interaction and High Expectations. The students wrote the letter with a real purpose; they wanted to get traffic lights in order to make the community life safer. They had a reason to write; therefore, the task was meaningful for them. They were involved in the process and could make decisions at every time; the teacher gave them his support and always trusted in them. At the end of the project the students were able to create more complex texts and improved their English skills.
