The English Language Learners continuously work hard to develop their reading, writing and speaking skills in the English language. In our small groups during this extra instruction time, we are focusing on building comprehension, vocabulary & writing skills using various non-fiction & fiction books. Also, various learning strategies will be implemented and practiced.
Our small groups are unique & diverse. Students come from Albania, Bangladesh, Bosnia, Iraq, Jordan, Laos, Lebanon, Philippines, Turkey and Vietnam. Some students can speak more than three languages!
The English Language Learner Program has three main goals. Those goals are:
1. To help ELL students acquire English language proficiency in the areas of listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
2. To help ELL students acquire core content knowledge while acquiring academic language proficiency to participate in the general education curriculum.
3. To help ELL students learn about the school and community and to participate more fully in non-academic and extra curricular opportunities offered by the school.
