Abstract

The number of students who speak languages other than English continues to grow in both rural and urban public schools in the United States. Teachers are challenged to accommodate the diverse needs of English language learners (ELLs). This exploratory study investigated the perceptions of eleven teachers from a rural public elementary school in North Carolina and how these perceptions affect the learning experiences of ELLs. This article discusses pedagogical implications for in-service teachers educating ELLs.
