[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure how this thread on vacancies moved to being about ELL students, but I'll bite. I work in an FCPS middle school and firmly believe that the county should have separate schools for English language learners to attend for a semester - or a year even - to learn English before going mainstream into base schools. Honestly, they can't learn English as well as content (so bad for them) and teachers can't do well teaching non-English speakers as well as all the levels of other students in the room, it's too much to ask of one professional (so bad for ALL students). How is this not obvious to everyone as a more cost effective and equitable solution??[/quote] This is not a bad idea except that it is probably not legal to isolate them from their English speaking peers. Maybe a school within a school where the basics are taught for part of the day and ESOL/non ESOL students are team taught for math.[/quote]
