Title: Conference Looks at the Needs of ESL Students
Body: From: OELA Newsline - March 9 The Oregonian reports on a "Closing the Achievement Gap" conference at Portland State University in Oregon that showcased many programs that have had success with students learning English as a second language (ESL) for others to replicate. One such program is Beaverton School District's Welcome Center. The Welcome Center, with its multilingual staff, assists immigrants with adjusting to the district and conducts entrance tests to assess students' English language proficiency. The staff also trains the district's teachers in the most recent methods to reach English language learners. The Welcome Center team recommended that educators use research-proven techniques with English-language learners such as: 1. Students should be taught high-level vocabulary and content. 2. Teachers should meet the cultural and social needs of both the child and his/her family. 3. Teachers should regularly measure the progress of ELLs and use the results to adjust their teaching. For more information on the model programs featured at the conference, visit: http://www.ode.state.or.us/gap http://www.kgw.com/sharedcontent/APStories/stories/D810JBP00.html
