Today was the official start day, or "trial run" for the Title 1/remedial reading programs in our building. What that means for ESL is changes to the schedule. Although we began pulling our kids several weeks ago after we finished the initial prep work, we were working on a tentative schedule. Today, the official schedule kicked in. We will now be able to tweek the schedule to allow for extra one-on-one time for specific students who need work on different skill sets.
The minor changes to the schedule have been progressing rather well so far. The students are adjusting to the new groups really well, and I am looking forward to the challenge of having students with different needs. Me and Mrs. Davidson (ESL teacher) are discussing separating groups based on levels during the same class time to work on skills that are more catered to each group.
