The project is designed to immerse two students into their Language Learning experience. The two translators that I am requesting will allow for my students to immediately begin communicating with their teachers and peers. The frustration of sitting in class and not being able to participate will instantly go away. They will be given free time to use the translator for developing their own understanding of the English language. Imagine how much faster you could learn a language, if you were able to say any phrase and then have some one say it back to you in the language you are learning, the possibilities would be endless!! I pride myself as an educator on being able to provide anything my students need. I feel helpless with these two students. I am asking for help, so that the continuity of these children's learning experience is impacted as little as possible, during this difficult transition in their lives.
