The Best Free Sites For YOUNG ELL Beginners

I’ve had a blast this school year being a volunteer tutor for a group of nine Beginning English Language Learners ranging from first-to-sixth grade (One day a week I go to that school and another day I go to the local Juvenile Hall).

The school year is ending soon, and I’m giving them and their parents a list of sites to use for English practice over the summer.

This list is divided into two parts.

The first section contains sites appropriate for young children that don’t require any registration or log-in.  Since I’m not an official teacher in the district, it wasn’t appropriate for me to suggest options where I would receive student data, even with their parent’s permission.

The second section contains additional suggestions for sites that are free and appropriate for young children, but require some kind of log-in and teachers receive reports on student work.
