So much to read on this topic that can be useful to our particular English Language Learner that is in Kindergarten and learning to read their own mother tongue language and attempting to read another new language. I just gathered a few statements and tips to get you started.
As I create the lesson plan, I put a big emphasis on listening and speaking activities, new vocabulary and using it along old vocabulary. I also plan a reading activity for each unit as a book that students put together. It can be read in class and sent them home for the students to read with their parents. You won't have to worry about the book getting lost or damaged. Read the book that you made in class or any other that you have from your library. Here is an example of one of the books, you can reread the books over and over again.
This is how the big book looks inside.
It is important to show the students the pictures and ask questions, such as What is this? and show the print as you read, point to the words. Many students are able to memorize parts of the story and encourage them to read with you. There is always a prediction part in each story, just point it out and have your students predict what will happen next.
