I teach 4th grade in a self-contained, transitional English classroom in a large urban school of 1006 students from pre-k through 8th grade. My school has a large bilingual program that focuses on moving students into the monolingual English classrooms as soon as possible. Students in the bilingual program receive native language instruction when they enter in kindergarten but are expected to transition out of the bilingual program into monolingual English classrooms by the end of third grade. My class consists of 30 students from low income home. My transitional fourth grade classroom consists of those students who did not achieve the benchmark necessary on the state mandated assessment to make that transition, as well as 4 new comers. In the classroom, I speak English 80% of the time and 20 % in Spanish and I teach all the content areas such as language arts, math, science, and social studies.
