Make sure that ELL/English B students are seated where they can see and hear well. Provide them with maximum access to the instructional and linguistic input that you are providing. Involve them in some manner in all classroom activities. Make sure that ELL/English B students are not sitting in groups with the same home language. Sitting in the same home language groups will make it easier for students to get off task. Time should be set aside in the lesson for stronger students to help weaker ones. This should not take up a major part of the lesson, so they do not need to be sitting next to each other. This will also minimise the time spent off task in the home language. Don’t separate and isolate students away from the rest of the class – physically or instructionally.
