I teach ESL (English as a Second Language) in a high poverty, rural school district. My students range from Kindergarten to 6th grade. Several of my students have just arrived in the country within the past few months. They can read and write in Spanish, but often feel intimidated by their ignorance of the language and culture. By providing my students with bilingual materials, I hope to put them more at ease in the school setting so that they may reach their full potential--regardless of the language barriers.
