SEI Strategies

SEI strategies, also known as Structured English Instructions, are a structured model that promotes English instructions and grammar directions. These strategies are beneficial for ELL students and include establishing language objectives, using the 50/50 English rule, pushing students to their productive discomfort, requiring articulate responses, and recognizing student responsibility. SEI instruction involves repetition and visual aids to enhance engagement and concept retention. This document discusses the implementation of SEI strategies in social studies, mathematics, and science, as well as the importance of valuing different subjects and background knowledge on SEI. Extended SEI discussion and references are also provided.
