Justification for the Activity (with citations from the readings)- Explain how this supports students
oral language development. Be detailed enough that it is clear that you have read the readings in
depth. Be sure to cite at least two sources.
This activity will support ELLs in different ways than normal. Since these terms are terms that are likely to
have word of equivalence in the language of the ELL. Since the EL can make these connections the
comprehension of the word will come more easily than the spelling. The crossword is a fun way for
students to demonstrate their knowledge of the vocabulary but also how it is spelled with hints on how
many letters will be in the word. Reading is a high complex, language-based process that integrates the
readers world and experiential knowledge, her knowledge of text structure and features, and her ability to
make sense of written symbols. It involves making meaning from print in a variety of contexts, and it is
thus intimately connected with language development. This is important because the more the students
read about each term the more they will understand what it means. The crossword will assess how much
they are learning to spell the word, as in hopes the more the students are reading the word, the repetition
will help them learn the spelling, much like a sight word.
