Chapter 8: Teaching Teenagers Who are Still Learning English

Chapter 8

What jumped out -> There was mentioning that students felt that they were sometimes being assessed on their language abilities and not the critical thinking or the comprehending.

Why it jumped out -> I think that this is similar to the statement that teachers can not expect the same work from every student. Teachers can not expect the same understanding of their language if the student is still learning or trying to master it. That would be unfair and be setting your students up to do poorly because of their cultural background.
