Why Small Group Instruction Works: Supporting Multilingual Learners at the Teacher-Led Station (Part 2)
In this episode, I explore how small group instruction can transform learning experiences for multilingual learners.
You'll learn why the teacher-led station in a station rotation model is the ideal space to differentiate support, build confidence, and offer real-time feedback. I break down three high-impact strategies—I Do, We Do, Pairs Do, You Do, Concept Attainment, and Real-Time Formative Feedback—and explain why they work best in small groups. Whether you're working with early language learners or more advanced students, you'll walk away with ideas you can use.
