HM ELL - About Program

ELL Program

at Horace Mann

Our ELL students are bilingual and bicultural children who share one common goal: improve their conversational and academic skills in English. 

Meeting Your Children's Needs

ELL teachers work with students in a variety of settings at Horace Mann:

In class support
Pull out support
Small group or individual support

ELL Services May Include...

Language development-academic and social
Functional language lessons: how to describe, sequence, explain, retell, summarize, agree/disagree, elaborate, etc.
Reading and writing
Vocabulary lessons and strategies
Academic conversations
Previewing classroom content
Learning about U.S. culture
And more...

Collaboration

ELL teachers collaborate frequently with your children's classroom teachers to align language goals with academic content goals.

We often communicate with families to bridge that home-school connection, which is so important for our ELL students.
