Educating ESL Students for Citizenship in a Democratic Society. ERIC Digest.
THIS DIGEST WAS CREATED BY ERIC, THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ERIC, CONTACT ACCESS ERIC 1-800-LET-ERIC A basic need of this growing population of ESL students is learning how to cope with the rights and responsibilities of citizenship in the United States. So civic education should pervade the curriculum for ESL students. This ERIC Digest treats five facets of civic education for ESL students: (1) needs and goals, (2) content and curriculum materials, (3) use of cooperative learning, (4) use of outside resource persons, and (5) national organizations that provide resources for teachers.
NEEDS AND GOALS
What happens when these ESL students enter United States schools? What are their civic education needs? Joan M. First writes (1988, 205), "Young immigrants enter the United States classrooms with cultural scripts modeled on the material and social environments of their homelands. Their behavior norms stem from lives they are no longer living but cannot forget. To survive, they must integrate old scripts with their new environment."

Educational Support Student Government Community Services Other Facilities New students arrive at Lincoln throughout the academic year, with different cultural, educational and linguistic backgrounds, and with varying levels of proficiency in English. Fortunately for them, Lincoln has a vigorous and highly regarded ESL Department to cater for the widely varying needs both of new ESL students and of those already here.
The ESL programme is designed to give additional language support to newly enrolled students with limited English proficiency, and, as the schedule permits, to those mainstream students whose language background is thought to be a factor in below grade level performance.
The overall goal of the programme is to help students function successfully in school life, both socially and educationally, as quickly as possible. The means to this end is a supported immersion programme, whereby ESL students are placed in their mainstream class but withdrawn for part of the day for specialist instruction from the elementary or secondary ESL teacher. Lessons are tailored to individual needs and take place in small groups of 1 to 4 students, in a relaxed, supportive and academically challenging environment that encourages risk-taking and promotes rapid, effective learning. The number of lessons and time in the programme depend on the student's progress as determined jointly by ESL and mainstream teachers, in consultation with the Lincoln Principals.

While that is all well and good, sometimes, (especially those of us who have been in the profession before these special needs programs were instated), we may feel a bit "behind the times" and not too well equiped to deal with these programs.

Conceptualizing Academic Language
This report draws upon linguistic data from two fifth-grade bilingual classrooms, to show that academic language is comprised of various discourse-level features which are influenced by academic tasks. The authors discuss how students often have different interpretations than teachers regarding what styles of language are appropriate for carrying out certain academic tasks.
A variety of publications resulting from CAL's work with TESOL on the ESL Standards. Implementing Standards with English Language Learners: Initial Findings from four Middle Schools This report summarizes the findings of the first year of an innovative research project conducted in Lowell, MA. The study provides a detailed discussion of the professional development needs that have become the main focus of the work in Lowell thus far. This report is intended for those interested in the role standards play in the education of English language learners, and the influence standards have on professional development in public education generally. Integrating Language and Content: Lessons from Immersion This report highlights the findings from research in second language immersion programs in Canada and makes recommendations for designing and implementing integrated language and content programs and other types of second language instruction.

The lessons progress from the sounds and regular spellings of basic consonants to those of the short vowels, the long vowels, and finally to irregular spellings and more difficult reading, writing, and grammar skills. The skill books and correlated readers may be used with both speakers of English and those who are learning English. A separate series of manuals, the Laubach Way to English, provides complete instructions for teaching the skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing English to the non-English-speaking student.

What Every Teacher of an ESL Student Needs to Know
First of all, the content teacher needs to understand that the ESL student community has the same amount of diversity that the general student body has; a variation in general intelligence, in subject-area familiarity, in maturity level, in motivation, and in economic background is to be expected throughout any given cultural group. When you have a concern about an ESL student, therefore, English language level is only one factor among many which influences the student's classroom performance. Nevertheless, some performance factors that are unique to ESL students in general are caused by cultural issues. Textbooks and teaching techniques used in the home country may be very different from the ones we use here. Many textbooks have no illustrations, charts, graphs, glossaries, or homework exercises. Teaching techniques are often deductive rather than inductive. Students may be encouraged to memorize information. Often teachers, not students, do laboratory experiments in science classes. Sometimes students are not used to working in groups; sometimes students have only worked in same-sex groups. When a particular ESL student seems very disoriented in your class, consult with the ESL teacher for available background information. Allow for a period of adjustment.

http://www.tamucc.edu/~gblalock/courses/3360/readings/etc/etc16.htm
Return to List of Readings CHAPTER 16 SUCCESS FOR ALL TEACHING STUDENTS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS The Human Need for Success I remember going to my box in late September of my first year of teaching. Mixed in with the administrative notices and catalogs was a note from a special ed student in my Basic English class. It was neatly folded into a two-inch square. I will never forget it: "Mr. Birk, I think I’m dum. Can you help me with that?" It was signed, "Your student, Jon." It was a huge admission that reminded me of how I felt when I landed in Tunisia to serve in the Peace Corps with my shiny new college degree and no Arabic. I knew things, knew I was smart (in my own language), knew I could do things (if they were the things I knew how to do). But the culture of the situation made everything feel wrong to me. I remember how angry I felt with all my ideas and feelings bottled up inside me. We have a lot of kids in our schools today especially boys, that feel this way They feel this way for very different reasons. Some of the students in our classes came from other countries as recently as yesterday They are like I was when I first arrived in Tunisia. And because I had great teachers—I actually had to live with them, surrounded by Arabic twenty-four hours a day!—I learned to think and move between the worlds of Arabic and English so well that I began to take French lessons (from a wonderful woman who began each lesson by making us espresso which we drank in the little cottage out back of her house—ahh, but that’s a different story!). Other students in our mainstream English classes have been here long enough to be in transitional classes" that are designed to support these English language learners in the "regular" English classes. Still other students may have been born here, but at home they speak other languages and so have what some call "second language interference" errors in their English or speak what others would call nonstandard English.

Follow Ups Post Followup Early Childhood Open Forum FAQ Posted by Alice M. Hammel, MENC Research Mentor on November 15, 2002 at 07:30:36: In Reply to: pre-K special ed posted by Christine Newhard on November 14, 2002 at 16:38:46: Christine, I agree with Cecelia! She gave you some great ideas! I believe that, in preschool in general, and especially in special needs situations, the key is repetition. I have had success in
teaching the EXACT same lesson at least five times in a row. I have been amazed at how much ALL of the little ones are able to do
when they are allowed to process slowly and bit by bit. Choose about 8-10 activities for a half-hour class. Make sure that you
include songs, motor activities (ball rolling, jumping, scarves, etc.), art music listening (something short and appealing), rhymes,
instrument playing (Songs in ABABAB...form are good sort of repetition within repetition eg. sticks on A and jingle bells on B).
Choose a song that requires the child to show or voice a choice a motion, an animal sound, a vegetable to put in the soup,
etc. These are great for speech and language developement. John Feierabend's "First Steps in Music" series has lots of great stuff.
