language activities based on your grade-level content text for the textbook language analysis.
• Use the guidelines on the handout.• Include language activities in which
students practice two or more of the following language skills: listening, speaking, reading, writing, vocabulary, and grammar.
• Be prepared to share.
![Page 27: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
LUNCH11:30 – 12:30
![Page 28: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Read & Respond• Read the research findings and
choose one point to respond to.• In the space provided, write a
practical example of a learning strategy that you teach your students to use.
• Share your example with your table group.
• Two groups will be randomly picked to share.
![Page 29: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Research Findings• The learning process is mentally active
and strategic.• Learning involves higher level thinking,
not just memory.• Social context and interaction are
critical.• Students learn content by relating it to
their prior knowledge.• Students learn processes through
integrative practice individually and with peers.
• Learning strategies can be taught and learned.
![Page 30: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Learning Strategy ExampleMy challenge: learning to use
my new cell phone.The strategies I used were: • Trying the way I used my old
cell phone.• Looking in the user’s manual.• Asking my daughter.• Asking a friend who has the
same phone.

Why Teach Learning Strategies?
• Show students how to be better learners.
• Build students’ self-efficacy.
• Increase student motivation for learning
• Help students become reflective and critical thinkers.
![Page 34: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
TIPS ON TEACHING LEARNING STRATEGIES
• Build on students’ current learning strategies.
• Demonstrate how to use the learning strategy by modeling.
• Give the strategy a name.• Provide ample practice
opportunities.
![Page 35: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Metacognitive Strategies
PlanningUnderstand the taskOrganize materialsFind resources
![Page 36: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Metacognitive Strategies
• Evaluation: after completing a task: Assess how well you
have accomplished the learning task.
Assess how well you have used learning strategies.
Decide how effective the strategies were.
Identify changes you will make the next time you have a similar task to
do.
![Page 37: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Metacognitive Strategies
Self-Management: Manage Your Own LearningDetermine how you
learn best.Arrange conditions that
help you learn.Seek opportunities for
practice.Focus your attention on
the task.
![Page 38: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
• All second language learners use strategies - BUT
• “Good” language learners use more varied strategies and use them more flexibly.
• Frequent use of learning strategies is correlated to higher self-efficacy.
Research Support for Teaching Learning Strategies
![Page 39: Facilitating Life-Long Learning Shelby County Schools ELL – PDA Session 6.](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022012914/5a4d1b007f8b9ab059986686/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
