- Cognitive Learning Strategies
- 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.
