Abstract
English language learners (ELLs) require a welcoming and safe environment to access their education. Without a welcoming environment, ELLs can fall victim to the stereotype threat that results in academic underperformance and poor emotional wellbeing. As ELLs are students in all content areas, the overarching research question presented here is: How can teachers create a welcoming environment for ELLs. This capstone aims to provide teachers, administration, and school staff with tools to establish a welcoming environment for ELLs in all subject areas. The literature reviewed for the capstone discusses themes like modifications, relationships, and administrative support. The professional development (PD) of this capstone educates teachers, administration, and school staff on the importance and practices for a welcoming environment, as well as tools to achieve that goal. The expected outcome of the PD is that all participants develop a deeper understanding of the research question and identify ways in which they can combat the issue in their classrooms and to promote academic success for ELLs.
