My Students

Every morning I push into a class or pull out a group of students from different first grade classes to work with them on reading and writing. My ways of communicating with students are using gestures, pictures, drawings, and movements, etc. They are the most difficult, but the most adorable kids!

This year I am working as a first grade push in/pull out ESL teacher.

I have more than 70 students who are from different countries and speak different languages; Korean, Spanish, Chinese, Italian, and Arabic, etc. The population in my school is very diverse and we have gotten more Chinese students within the last two years. These students are very smart, but they need the tools to assist them in learning the new language; English. Most of these children do not understand a word of English. They are new to this country. I have to use a lot of songs, gestures, visual supports, movements to engage them and teach the lessons in order for them to understand. Thankfully the school is very supportive of ESL teachers.

My Project

Because my students do not understand a word of English, I need to include a lot of different motivating and engaging activities to support my lessons. I use a lot of visual support such as using the SMARTboard. However, I found it is more engaging and fun when students get to hold something tangible in their hands; something colorful, visual, and hands-on. We need a printer that can print out pictures and photos. With pictures, students understand the content better, their prior knowledge can be activated and transferred. With pictures, I can make my lessons clearer and more interesting. I also love to print photos of my students working. It is absolutely amazing to see my students' smiles when they see themselves in a picture.

I can already picture the excitement my students will have with the new printer.

It will make the learning so much more fun and engaging. I believe when the students feel excited about learning, they learn faster! I can also use the printer to print out stuff for them to bring home where their parents can be part of the learning too.
