About the GO English2! Forms and Functions Charts:

Teacher-friendly and easy to use, the GO English2! Forms and Functions Charts provide

teachers with examples of how the uses of language interrelate with its grammar. For instance, the checklist provided in this sampler visually represents the daunting task of second language learning. As you’ll see, the provided clock illustration is another example that shows how English learners tend to plateau once they reach Level III. There is so much for students to learn in Levels IV and V that they often seem to get “stuck” in Level III. Overall, these materials are an excellent tool for teachers and can guide their instruction of English learners. The charts apply to all levels of language proficiency and are designed for ELD/ESL/ESOL classrooms as well as other classroom settings. Features: • A matrix to exhibit a model sentence for every grammatical form by proficiency level in a functional context. • A tool for teachers to access examples of the ways in which the uses of language interrelate with its grammar. • An at-a-glance scaffold to practice each grammatical form by proficiency level within a communicative context. • A fundamental document for every teacher working with English learners to develop language sensitivity.
