| Title | ELL Parents Receive Homework, Too |
| Body | From: OELA Newsline ELL Parents Receive Homework, Too Maria Armental reports in the Daily Record on a new English as a Second Language (ESL) program offered at MacKinnon School in Wharton, New Jersey. René Postrech teaches ESL to students in grades 4 through 8 during the day and then the same course to their parents twice a week. According to Postrech, having parents attend classes at the school motivates their children. Although English language skills are top priority, students also study elementary subjects such as American history and government. Many of the parents are studying English so they can use professional skills learned in their native lands in the United States. But others just want to be able to speak with people such as their children's teacher and/or the parents of their children's friends. At the end of the semester, students will take tests to determine if the program is to continue. To read the entire article, visit: http://www.dailyrecord.com/news/articles/news5-newwhartonesi.htm |
