Enterprise has over 60 students receiving ESOL services, from more that 20 different countries, who speak 12 languages other than English. Second Grade Second grade ESOL students spend daily time developing their listening and speaking skills. Because of the small group setting, students are given an opportunity to speak more than in a larger class. Songs, chants, poems, and plays develop students' speaking skills. We are working on reading through choral reading and using guided reading in leveled books.
More advanced students read chapter books and nonfiction articles.
We write in our journals and are working on expressing our ideas in writing. We are looking forward to our scavenger hunt in May. May. Third Grade Third grade ESOL students are expanding their vocabulary through stories they are reading. We are developing our reading through use of leveled books, poems, short nonfiction articles, and independent reading. We read and perform plays using Reader's Theatre.
