Description
Book SynopsisThe topic of English learners and multiple modalities represents an important topic to study because teachers become overwhelmed managing classrooms. Research Based Bilingual Education: The Impact of Multiple Modalities in a K-12 English Learner Classroom seeks to uncover these modalities by focusing on spatial, kinesthetic, musical, and interpersonal intelligence. With a specific emphasis on spatial intelligence, this book explores this concept as a way for English Learners to recall and use language with text that creates images or pictures in a student's brain. It allows them to see language in other ways without having to use a translation device to define words. Ultimately, the author argues that ELs use spatial intelligence to help them visually remember concepts. Students who are learning English as a second language need to interact with others, such as their peers, to help them.
