Our school goal is to teach English Language Learners not only the English language but also academic and social skills, which will promote successful future academic and social endeavors. As a way to support and meet our school-wide goals, our school has developed units around Community, Traditions and Culture, and Civic Responsibilities.
Hands-on projects for these units will serve as a way to assess the students’ direction following and also provide a way to give back to our community.
First, we will be making no-sew blankets to donate to the Child Life Program for the ICU at our local hospital. The second project will be fleece scarves that the students will make and then leave in places around the city to help those who need a little warmth during the winter season. The projects will include listening, speaking, reading, and writing components as they write reflections and record how-to videos.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
