Discussion:
As an educator, it is vitally important that you understand how theory guides what teachers do in the classroom. As you review the various theories of second language acquisition in Chapter 4 of our text, which theory or theories of Second Language Acquisition (SLA) resonates most with you and why? How do you anticipate these theories might affect instruction in your own classroom? Provide at least three classroom-based examples of teaching strategies you might use to show the connection between theory and practice. In other words, how might you use the theory or theories of SLA to support your English Language Learner in the classroom. Be sure to specifically relate the theory that supports your classroom-based examples.
