What is a primary purpose of providing short sentence stems and terms related to a discussion for English-language learners (ELLs) at the beginning level of language proficiency?

  1. Assessing their English proficiency

  2. Encouraging complete silence during discussions

  3. Enhancing group discussions

  4. Helping them practice before participating

The correct answer is: Helping them practice before participating

Providing short sentence stems and terms related to a discussion for English-language learners (ELLs) at the beginning level of language proficiency helps them practice before participating. This technique allows ELLs to develop familiarity and confidence in using English vocabulary and sentence structures before being expected to fully contribute to a discussion. The other options are incorrect as assessing English proficiency, encouraging complete silence, and enhancing group discussions are not the primary purpose of providing short sentence stems and terms to ELLs.
