Syllabus

Course Goals: The chief goal of the ESOL program is to advance English communication skills. This includes varied instruction and practice in listening, speaking, reading and writing.

Instructional Procedures:

* Students will work in various settings. These include direct instruction and active learning through individual, peer, or group work while socially distancing.

* Participation: Language acquisition takes daily extended practice and the best practice is to actively listen and regularly practice speaking the second language. Active participation in listening, speaking, reading, and writing exercises are vital to the achievement of learning a new language.

* Instructional strategies: Students will learn through various strategies such as TPR (total physical response), visual aids, listening and speaking activities, role-playing, reading texts, writing activities, and Rosetta Stone.

Our Class Rules:

Be polite to everyone and to the teacher. No laughing at "mistakes" we're all learning!
