To help achieve this objective, several guiding principles are presented that emerged from an interview conducted with Dr. Bryan McKinley Jones Brayboy and American Indians Studies Consultant, David O'Connor. In addition to explanations of each guiding principal, a discussion tool is provided that can be used in your local context about how these guiding principles can impact your classroom and guide your instruction.</p><p style="font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, 'Helvetica Neue Light', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; "><a href="http://wida.us/resources/focus/WIDA_Focus_on_AIELL.pdf" target="_blank" title="Link: http://wida.us/resources/focus/WIDA_Focus_on_AIELL.pdf">http://wida.us/resources/focus/WIDA_Focus_on_AIELL.pdf</a></p><p style="font-family: HelveticaNeue-Light, 'Helvetica Neue Light', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: 16px; "><span><document.png></span><span><attachment.png></span></p></div></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
