Spotlight on: How do we Teach ESOL?
The program for EAL is built around online immersion lessons. We focus on having students engage in active use of the language as well as writing and reading exercises with their students. We focus on teaching interdisciplinary topics through English to make rapid gains in applying increased English skills across the curriculum. Our teachers must have their students actively speaking, reading, and writing for the lesson to pass our quality assurance standards.
The lessons in our curriculum apply to our Purple Ruler English Level (PR English Level) below. As long as students are making progress through our levels you are going to see advancements in the other related benchmarks you can see in the diagram.
How does our platform work?
Our platform is designed for higher-level data management to ensure academic growth and attendance across entire schools and districts. Our real-time data lets you hold us accountable to the impact of our work.
Below you will find a video I recorded to show you what it looks like from an administrator's perspective.
