Conduct a needs analysis of the two ELLs, Maria, and Mikhail. What do you know about their backgrounds? What are their current levels of English language development?
The two ELL students that Mr. O’Malley is currently teaching in his sixth grade English class are both Maria and Mikhail. Maria to begin with has been in the English class for about five months since she joined Mr. O’Malley’s English class. Then, she did not know how to communicate with English in any way, and unfortunately, Mr. O’Malley did not speak her native language too. It was thus extremely difficult for her to communicate with anyone. All that the two used in the form of communication is non-verbal forms of communications like nodding when agreeing to something.
