I am doing a unit on Charlotte's Web. It is about three weeks long. I have planned a lot of different things like readers theater etc.. and also made sure to use cross curricular lesson plans. However I need to address how to make modifications for the ELL students and the diverse learners and cultural connections. I am a first year teacher.

In Charlotte's Web, the characters go to a country fair. Perhaps your students can design a cultural fair? Charlotte uses words like "Amazing" and "Stupendous"--students could design an advertisement for Wibur using words that are new to them. There are many animals in the book--would it be possible to ask a language teacher to visit the classroom and teach a short lesson on the animal names in another language, or ask students what they can share with their classmates.
