No, in this class, you will learn how to read, write, speak, and listen to English and think. These skills will help you in all of your subjects, including in your academic and tech classes, and any college or career that you choose.
No, reading in any language will help you with your English language ability. Please keep reading! Learning English does not mean you forget about your first language. Celebrate being multilingual!
You should try on the Access test because if your composite score is 4.8 or higher, you will no longer need Multilingual Learner support services. If you do not try on the test, the score is not going to reflect your true abilities. If you try to do your best at whatever you do, you will be successful and have more pride!
We cannot just leave you alone. Our role as teachers is to help you do better in all of your classes because we sincerely care about you and want to help you succeed. We are not just your teachers, but people who you can depend on!
You can translate most websites by using the Google Translate extension. I have included a video how to use this extension in Spanish under online resources. According to an old article, all of the pages within Sites can be translated just by clicking a floating "translate" button on the bottom right of the page. Please let me know if this works for you.
It makes it easier for me to put everything in one place for students to access for all classes. The stream on Google Classroom can get messy. I will also be linking all Google Classrooms to this website.
