My two classes of students come to me in 5th grade from all over the world with priceless experiences and stories, but very little (if any) English language skills. Learning a new language at an older age is much harder and more intimidating when practicing with native English-speaking peers. They deserve to have a voice. My school utilizes an online reading program that is individualized and adaptive to fit the unique needs of each student. Through a series of interactive games, stories and articles that are either read by the student or to the student by the program, students learn vocabulary, grammar, and fluency in a fun and engaging way. However, our classroom does not have any headphones or earbuds, which lowers the effectiveness of the program simply because the room becomes so loud and chaotic with 30 computers reading aloud different stories all at once. These headphones would help my students focus and allow them to clearly hear the pronunciation of new words while also giving them privacy and the confidence to practice reading aloud without fear of being heard by their peers sitting next to them.
