I teach in a Title I school where many students receive free and reduced lunch. My students are bilingual or are learning English as their second language.
Some of my newcomers have never had the opportunity to go to school prior to moving to the United States.
My students are learning basic English as well as content in their classrooms. Learning a new language is never easy, but we have a lot of fun. Giving them a safe place to grow and learn is very important.
My Project
Students learning a new language need lots of hands on and fun learning experiences. I do not have many resources as a 1st year teacher of English Language Learners.
Having the opportunity to manipulate letters and sounds makes it easier for students to learn to read.
The alphabet set will help them learn new vocabulary and practice letter sounds and sorting skills. Bilingual books will be used to help teach concept of word. They will use unifix cubes to practice letter sounds and learn that the sounds come together to make words. Boogie boards are a fun way to practice writing.
