My students love to read and as ESL students, they need more opportunities to speak in English. Implementing Literature Circles in my groups will help foster their critical thinking, engage in debates and discussions, and create an environment where students can openly share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences through the books they read. This will be possible through getting chapter books that are engaging as well as appropriate for my students' reading levels. Through these books, my students will have opportunities to work on all four language components during class (listening, speaking, reading, and writing) and thus not only help improve their English skills, but overall have a more successful academic transition in their general education classrooms. I am also requesting DVDs that go along with some of these chapter books in order to do some compare and contrast speaking and writing activities with my students afterwards.
