Essential Scaffolds, Strategies and Tasks for Language-Based Teaching and Learning for MultilinguALL Learners is a practice-based synthesis of high leverage practices developed over the course of more than two decades serving Emergent Bilinguals within Wisconsin schools. Educators, schools, and districts often find themselves in an Instructional Bermuda Triangle when trying to determine which instructional ‘best practices’ are truly best for their population of multilinguALL learners. I developed this resource as a means to identify the overlap between some of the most researched and commonly used instructional frameworks that actually shifted outcomes for the learners and educators with whom I worked. Consequently, it represents an evolution of understanding(s) rooted in many years of bridging theory and practice by engaging in ongoing cycles of practitioner inquiry while advocating for multilinguALL learners. This tool reflects the foundational considerations needed to develop strong language-attentive programming for students as they acquire both language and content across varying social and academic contexts within and beyond school settings.
