What is a potential outcome of not addressing vocabulary deficiencies in ELL students?

  1. Increased fluency in English

  2. Enhanced comprehension of lesson materials

  3. Frustration and disengagement from learning

  4. Improved collaboration with peers

The correct answer is: Frustration and disengagement from learning

Not addressing vocabulary deficiencies in English Language Learner (ELL) students can lead to frustration and disengagement from learning. When students lack a strong vocabulary, they struggle to understand the instruction and the material being taught. This can create a barrier to participation in class discussions and activities, making them feel isolated or ineffective compared to their peers. As they encounter more challenges, their motivation can decline, potentially leading to a negative attitude toward education. Moreover, when students do not possess the necessary vocabulary, they may also miss essential concepts and knowledge that are crucial for their academic success. This affects not only their current learning but can have long-term impacts on their overall educational trajectory. Hence, focusing on vocabulary development is critical to enhance their experience and effectiveness in the learning environment.
