Wow!! Learnign English is Fun

My students need classroom material the enhances the learning of English as a Second Lnaguage to non speakers. Resources such as "Learning to Read Bingo" and a "colors" bingo game would really help the students to learn English. An audio word reader would tremendously help the students to learn sight words and every day use words by listening to the word reader and repeating the words. ESL students need lots of repetion and using these resources would help.

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

I teach kindergarten ESL in a Title I school in Texas. Teaching in this low income area really encourages me to keep teaching so that every student no matter where they are from or what their native language is learn to speak and understand English fluently.

ESL students start school with a disadvantage because they hardly know anything about the English language. They come to school everyday hoping to become experts in the English language. No matter how hard the obstacle is they always seem to advance to the next level understanding the concepts of English.

Most of the time the best way for a student to learn something new is by lots of pictures and colors. Hands - on activities with voice activated material such as "Learning to Read Bingo" and a "colors" bingo game would really help the students to learn English. An audio word reader would tremendously help the students to learn sight words and every day use words by listening to the word reader and repeating the words.

You will make it possible for ESL kindergaretners to learn English fluently and become experts of the English language. After the student becomes fluent in English the student takes that knowledge home and share with their parents and make them experts in English also.
