    The article 'Co-Teaching to Support ELLs' explains the importance of co-teaching elementary schools for English Language Learners. Although the article focuses on the positive impacts of co-teaching during the literacy block, the same steps used an be resourceful during math. The text states, "Co-teaching brings two educators with differing areas of expertise together to serve students for part or all of their day," (Beninghof & Leensvaart, 2016). When co-teaching, the classroom teacher breaks up the class based on their language comprehension. It is the English language development teacher (EDL) to engage ELL students and ensure their comprehension.

    Classroom teachers and co-teachers can use this article to effectively create lesson plans for both whole class and ELL students. The most popular co-teaching plan is the I do, we do, you do protocol. The text states, "This phase (we do) also included side-by-side teaching, in which the coach would intervene during an observed lesson to demonstrate a language development strategy or participation structure," (Beninghof & Leensvaart, 2016). The EDL/co-teacher will go over key points and directions within the lesson.
