My students are new to the country, new to English and new to reading! With magnetic letters, a white board and a stash of Swahili language books, they will have everything they need to dive into beginning literacy! Since many of our new students are in 4th and 5th grade, their mainstream classrooms do not provide them with the pre-literacy support that they need. As their ESL teacher, I am seeking to fill the gap. I also know that seeing the Swahili language in print will give them pride in their home language and culture. I would also like to send the books home so that they can practice reading at home with their very involved and supportive parents.
