RED 4325 Reading to Learn: ELLs in Grades 4 – 6
Program description
Many students encounter difficulty as they transition from “learning to read” to “reading to learn” in fourth grade, and this difficulty can be even more difficult for English language learners. Why do so many students experience what is often referred to as the “fourth grade slump”? What can teachers do to make the transition into the upper elementary grades less difficult, especially for ELLs? This webcast explores effective strategies for instruction and assessment that can help address these important questions.

After watching and reading the text, copy and respond to the following questions in a Word Document, number each question, use Times New Roman font, and use 12 point font. Use the text and video as evidence to support your answers and cite them APA format :
- What do we mean when we say that good comprehension instruction takes place before, during, and after reading?
- What are some examples of the academic language that students need to know in the discipline /grade level you plan to teach?
- Describe some specific effective strategies that you can use to help ELL students learn vocabulary (at least 2 strategies).
- Create a graphic organizer that could be used in a class to teach a concept in your discipline and explain why it would be effective with ELL students (cite in APA format any sources you may use). Add the graphic organizer and also explain.
- If you were to begin a new lesson or unit of study in a class, what method(s) might you use to preview difficult vocabulary or concepts with your ELLs?
Develop an action plan that sets up opportunities for children to learn to understand, respect, and embrace differences and act/interact in unbiased and fair ways
Develop an action plan that sets up opportunities for children to learn to understand, respect, and embrace differences and act/interact in unbiased and fair ways
Consider analyzing specific ways in which to respond to and intervene with young children when they exhibit prejudice, misconceptions, fear, and/or rejection of differences with respect to culture, language, and economic class. You will develop an action plan that sets up opportunities for children to learn to understand, respect, and embrace differences and act/interact in unbiased and fair ways. Your action plan will focus on the four aspects of creating an anti-bias learning community:
- Positive interactions with children
- Positive relationships with and among families
- The visual and material environment
- Curriculum planning
See the attached form “Creating an Anti-Bias Learning Community: Diversity of Culture, Language, and Economic Class. Plan activities and experiences to help children expand their understanding of diversity, build respect for others, and overcome negative and biased feelings, you will complete this form and ultimately submit it as your application.
Consider the statements below that could reflect the voices of young children. Choose one of the statements to be the focus of your analysis.
- “Gabriel is stupid. He doesn’t even speak our language. Why doesn’t he learn English?” (Boy, 6)
- “Go away! My mom says you’re a lazy Mexican! I’m not playing with you.” (Boy, 5)
- “You can’t play with us – your clothes are old and ugly.” (Girl, 4)
- “No, you can’t be the princess because your Daddy doesn’t have a car. You can be the maid.” (Girl 5)
With your selection in mind, begin to consider activities, discussions, and other techniques you might put into place to respond to the biases expressed in the statement.
Using the “Creating an Anti-Bias Learning Community: Diversity of Culture, Language, and Economic Class” form; record the child’s statement you selected in the upper right-hand box. Then, for each of the four anti-bias learning community elements listed on the left-side of the form, think about at least two action items that will address the misconceptions and biases revealed in the child’s statement to help all of children with whom you work develop respect for diversity. Look at Chapter 4 of the course text, and other resources attached

How might such experiences affect your own emotional, cognitive, and physical well being?
Consider the following prompts:
- Think about what you learned about classism, racism, gender stereotyping and sexism, and other”-isms” prevalent in our society. Consider the ways in which these “–isms” influence people’s well being.
- Now, imagine that you are an early childhood professional who is experiencing one or more of the “-isms” in your personal life. i.e., people are reacting to you with stereotypes and prejudice. How might such experiences affect your own emotional, cognitive, and physical well being? How might this impact your work with young children and their families?
Reflect upon and respond to the prompt below:
- Describe in detail the consequences you might expect for the children and families with whom you work while you experience specific “–ism(s)” in your own life. Include specific examples either those you have and/or are experiencing or ones you would anticipate.

Evaluate the impact of data derived from wearable technology on healthcare technology
Evaluate the impact of data derived from wearable technology on healthcare technology
Each healthcare organization has its own internal policies related to how data is managed. There are also federal guidelines and regulations regarding the use of patient data. The data harvested by healthcare organizations is no longer uniquely derived from HIT systems. Wearable technologies have emerged in the market. Mega companies like Apple and Samsung, have also teamed up with some telehealth platforms to connect doctors, institutions, and insurance companies.
Evaluate the impact of data derived from wearable technology on healthcare technology.
Include the following aspects in the discussion:
- Select Apple’s Health Kit or another consumer platform of your choice.
- Discuss how the consumer wearable market is changing the healthcare delivery process.
- Summarize why cybersecurity continues to be a major obstacle to consumer wearable adoption specifically in the H.I.T. space.
- Discuss your personal perspective on how the lack of ethnic diversity in data collection impacts the future of healthcare research.
