ESL SUPPORT AT STONY CREEK
What does it look like if your child is enrolled in the ESL program? Here are three ways I support multilingual students and their families:
work with kids
I work with all ESL students, either in their classroom or in small groups in my room. Our work together is focused on the language needed to do their best in their classroom.
work with teachers
I meet with teachers to help plan lessons, provide recommendations or resources, and problem-solve to best support English language learners.
work with families
Please reach out at any time! I can arrange for an interpreter for any language. I will gladly talk with your about your child's language progress and share their goals and successes.
DID YOU KNOW?
It takes most people 5-7 years to become completely proficient in a second language.
