Writing is such a great way to help students grow their language skills! Lucky to Learn Writing makes it easier for English Language Learners (ELLs) by offering fun, structured activities that support their writing development every step of the way.

Now let's dive into the ways Lucky to Learn Writing helps ELLs develop their writing skills and feel more confident with the English language in the process!

Using specific sentence starters like “Mouse feels ___ when ___” or “Mouse feels ___ because ___” helps ELLs create more detailed sentences. This not only supports their writing but also encourages them to think more deeply about language and content.

Encouraging Speaking and Discussion

ELLs need frequent opportunities to speak about what they are learning. Lucky to Learn Writing promotes activities where students discuss their writing, practice speaking, and learn to use academic language in context.

Incorporating Visuals and Gestures

Lucky to Learn Writing makes it easier and fun for ELLs to dive into writing thanks to helpful structure, chances to practice speaking woven into every lesson, and lots of visuals to guide them along the way!
