These extensions of the ArtsNOW 'Poetry In Motion' Ignite Guide address
specific accommodations for 1-Students With Disabilities, 2-English Language Learners, and 3-Gifted Students. First
with practical activities making use of powerful strategies, then with professional learning materials intended to assist
teachers who desire to generate more, similar, activities for their special student populations.
The materials
for English Language Learners are derived from effective, general, teaching practices as documented by Robert Marzano and
applied to ELL by Jane Hill and Kathleen Flynn, briefly described in the common resources, from the ASCD Website at http://www.ascd.org/publications/books/106009.aspx
The 'extension' activities provided fit standards for the American Revolution, specifically The Midnight
Ride of Paul Revere. They are designed to provide greater success for English language Learners. They make
use of both 'Sheltering' and 'Scaffolding' techniques.
