“…Educators are encouraged to get to know HLLs in their classroom by administering informal surveys to learn about their backgrounds and experiences (Douglas, 2005), and macro-based approaches to instruction are recommended for leveraging HLLs existing abilities in the language (Carreira & Kagan, 2018).
