How can schools support ELL students in the general education classroom

My research question is how can schools help ELL students in their general classroom. I focused mainly on the math subject and explained how students are disengaged in their learning and are struggling more their the other peers. I did some research to find how we can support those students. That includes developing and accomindating our lessons to better the students. I found solutions, but I was not able to implement my solutions because the school already had them in place!

The Benefits of Physical Education on Academic Performance

This research project studies the benefits of physical education on academic performance in elementary school students. Many schools have decreased physical education time or eliminated it altogether due to budget cuts and emphasis on common core state standard subjects. We used data from several sources, including the American Health Association, to determine the importance of physical education class in elementary schools. Studies show the slight positive benefit of physical education on academic performance in elementary age students in terms of memory and focus in the classroom. Although not every source can prove correlation equals causation, studies reveal the effects of physical activity during the school day is beneficial to overall academic achievement.
