Abstract
There are many structures for teaching second language; two-way immersion and ESL/ELL are the two primary focuses of this paper. The objective of a teacher with an ESL/ELL student is to provide the student with sufficient content-specific language for him or her to meet state standards and succeed in that teacher's specific area of content. The objective of a two-way immersion classroom is to foster the learning of a new language through the teaching of content. This study examines what research claims are best practices of two-way immersion modifications, and how the best practices and modifications can be incorporated in a first grade mathematics two-way Spanish/English immersion lesson plan. The primary focus of language use is student discussion, the final discussion as a large classroom is designed to share multiple solving strategies and listening to both English and Spanish being used. This hypothetical lesson was written based on the combination of suggestions of best practices for teaching mathematics in a two-way immersion classroom.
