2nd – 5th Grade
As ESL teachers of second language learners, we know that cognates or words that look and/or sound similar in two languages are abundant in academic language. With this in mind, we offer this informative free ESL article that will give you a framework of teaching cognates.
•Why teach cognates?
•What does the research say?
•What are false cognates?
•What can parents do?
Common Core State Standards (CCSS) ask us to increase vocabulary and comprehension. Second language learners can benefit in these areas with lessons about cognates.

Research tells us that learning about cognates teaches ESL students to look for them in their reading, enhances attention to words and comprehension, and finally transfers to other content areas.
