An Introduction to Ellevation Strategies

How it Works
Empower Teachers to Successfully Engage ELs.

Each activity in Ellevation Strategies supports quality instruction with key student information, clear instructions, downloadable resources, student-specific scaffolds, demonstration videos, and more.

Easily Find the Right Instructional Activity
We’ve made it easy for teachers to find research-based instructional activities by subject area, grade level, keywords, language practice, and standards.

Improve Differentiation for ELs
Our instructional activities include Support Level suggestions, directly tied to the most recent assessment data on English Language proficiency levels, which help teachers group students and scaffold instruction for linguistically diverse students.

Bridge the Gap Between EL Specialists and Classroom Teachers
EL specialists can recommend activities to teachers for particular students. Upon completing activities with students, teachers can leave notes that summarize their reflections.
