Greetings.
I hope that everyone is doing well and is enjoying our Eastern Washington summer. I'm posting another blog prompt relating to our experiences thus far. As a reminder, these prompts are meant to provide each of you with an opportunity to further reflect on our coursework, our school visits, and our cultural visits. Please answer this prompt on your own blog site, and give it the title "English Language Learners and Education."
Thinking about our visits to Global Neighborhood, the Refugee Parent's Panel, Jack Anderson at Kennewick Public Schools, Mea Moore at the Professional Educator Standards Board, Jacob's Well, the Salish Language Workshop, and what we've been discussing in our academic classes, what did you discover about how English language learning affects students' capacity to be successful in school? In what ways is this similar to your home country? In what ways is this different than in your home country? As an educator, how do you understand your role in assisting students who are language learners to be successful in school?
Reading your responses thus far has been great. As always, please feel free to view one another's posts and comment on what is written. Thanks to you all for all of your hard work.
Sean Agriss
