22. 3 Ways to Encourage Your ELLs to Keep Learning English in the Summer

The two words all teachers dread…summer slide. You’ve worked so hard with your students all year. The last thing you want is for them to go for the next 2 months without applying the skills or practicing English. You know if they don’t use it, they’ll lose it. It can be tricky with our students who live in homes and communities that mainly speak a different language.

Today, I’ll give you 3 easy ways to encourage your students to keep practicing English during the summer, and some of them may surprise you. You may be tempted to print off a bunch of pages and create packets of work for your students to do throughout the summer, but I will tell you why you definitely should NOT do that! I’ve got a FREE resource for you that you can send home with your students, so be sure to sign up for that.
