The Time magazines will be used by the students every day during Center time. This is when they break down into groups depending on English language level. They will carefully read and analyze the Articles and look for things such as the main idea or theme. They will use the magazine articles as springboards to do research projects and look for Spanish-English cognates. The magazines will open their horizons to new places and things they've never heard about. The plays will be a fun way for them to practice their English oral skills in a non-pressure environment. By taking on a character they will no longer feel embarrassed to be speaking English out loud.
