Embedding the ELPS With E’s: High School Social Studies

This practical resource for high school social studies teachers streamlines the instruction English Language Learners (ELLs) need to build the social and academic language essential for success. It maintains the integrity of core lesson content by integrating three powerful instructional components: the English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS), the 5E instructional model, and highly effective strategies identified through the Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning study led by Robert Marzano.

Each book includes:

• Reader activities designed for learning teams, book studies, or individual professional growth

• Instructional tools and vocabulary-building strategies

• Three classroom-ready, content-specific lessons demonstrating how these components can be seamlessly integrated
