                                  3. A combination of methods, strategies, and approaches are essential for CLD students. Instruction must be scaffolded and explicit for CLD students to be able to use and apply learning strategies. Additionally, CLD students often struggle with reading, writing, and using higher-order thinking skills. Therefore, it is imperative that teachers integrate content instruction, language instruction, and strategies instruction. The CALLA Method is a method that encourages this integration.
