Looking to help students practice "reading" images for a variety of contextual meanings while engaging in content area study? This lesson uses images of the Boston Massacre to deepen students' comprehension of both the event and the effects of propaganda. Students begin by completing an anticipation guide to introduce them to Boston Massacre, propaganda, and British/colonial reactions to the massacre. They then complete an image analysis to make inferences about various images of the massacre. The culminating activity-a presentation about students' observations and inferences-demonstrates students' knowledge of the Boston Massacre and propaganda in a variety of ways. This lesson benefits English-language learners (ELLs) and struggling readers because it involves viewing images, participating in discussions, working with peers, and listening to a read-aloud that reinforces the lesson content and vocabulary.

"The Common Framework of Reference (CFR) is a criterion-referenced performance scale that supports educators as they work with a growing demographic of learners that require English as an Additional Language (EAL) supports. In order to ensure that such learners attain high levels of achievement across the Saskatchewan curriculum, the use of reference scales and corresponding resources is valuable to teacher planning and development of: effective strategies to support English language learners; consistent approaches to instruction and assessment based on language needs; and, ongoing monitoring of student progress over time. The Common Framework of Reference (CFR) is a well-established language framework that identifies ways in which learners at various levels of proficiency use language to perform meaningful, authentic tasks. The descriptors within the CFR identify observable behaviours that can be structured to support the attainment of provincial curriculum outcomes for EAL learners." (p.1) The following document is from the Government of Saskatchewan and it addresses elementary, middle and secondary learners.
