Accessing the information contained in rich, age-appropriate, relevant, complex texts proves challenging for English learners (ELs). However, through close and repeated reading of such texts, students can develop their literacy skills in ways necessary for successful academic experiences. Our session demonstrates the use of complex texts with adolescent English learners through a standards-aligned English language arts unit. Incorporating video of classroom instruction, the session offers evidence of how teachers can facilitate comprehension of complex texts with ELs.
