My Students

My ELLs, or English Language Learner students, are laughter-inducing, young pre-teens juggling the terrors of adolescence in a big school. While some are brand new immigrants, many are also U.S.-born students who come from limited English homes or have learning disabilities that interfere with their academic progress.

Mastering social and academic English does not come easily to my students facing these kinds of challenges, nor is the task simple for their limited English proficient parents who rely on the school to help their children where they cannot due to long work hours or knowledge gaps.

My Project

Picture dictionaries are essential in a language learner's toolbox. However, the most commonly available picture dictionaries help English language learners with vocabulary for everyday life in the home, at the store, or in a restaurant, but not with advanced concepts when studying ancient civilizations or global climate zones.

These workbooks and teacher's guides accompany a series of high-quality bilingual picture dictionaries designed for use in multiple subject areas and organized by curriculum-relevant themes.

These materials can help to further enhance the use of the dictionaries alone by guiding lesson planning, providing audio supports, and adding practice activities that are invaluable to both my ELLs and students with special needs, as well as fellow co-teachers.
