NCPA 采用了斯坦福大学为英语学习者 (ELL) 研发的六大原则教学法作为我们学校的奠基石 . 这些原则指导着我们整个教学团队 , 确保我们的学生能够成功的达到严谨的学习目标的同时帮助他们进行英语语言习得。

RESEARCH-BASED NCPA has adopted Stanford University’s Six Key Principles for English Language Learner (ELL) Instruction as a cornerstone of our program. These principles guide our entire faculty in ensuring that students successfully meet the rigorous demands of standards-based instruction while supporting English language acquisition: 1.

教学法将英语学习者的第一语言、文化背景及知识背景作为一种优势。

教学法是与科目标准一致的，也是严谨的、与年级教学内容在同一水平上，并为学习者提供直接的恰当的支持。

knowledge. 3.

教学法的重点在于为英语学习者提供针对每个科目的独特设计的练习，而这些练习是为了给英语学习者建立科目概念的理解同时能够进行语言的习得。

Instruction focuses on providing ELLs with opportunities to engage in disciplinelanguage competence in tandem.

Instruction fosters ELLs’ autonomy by equipping them with the strategies necessary to comprehend and use language in a variety of academic settings.

6. Diagnostic tools and formative assessment practices are employed to measure students’ content knowledge, academic language competence, and participation in disciplinary practices. COLLABORATIVE EAL teachers and content teachers co-plan lessons and co-teach in the mainstream classroom. DATA-DRIVEN As a member of the World-Class Instructional Design and Assessment (WIDA) Consortium, NCPA assesses the listening, speaking, reading, and writing English language proficiency levels of our students. This data is used to inform instructional practice by differentiating instruction and assessment based on student needs and to measure student growth.

此教学法会帮助培养学习者的自主性，为他们提供用于在不同学术环境中理解及使用语言的学习策略。
