Project Goal

The goal of the headphone request is to assure that each eligible English Language Learner has the appropriate headphone set that allows for clear and precise language and recording. This will help the learner meet his or her ultimate English Language goal of speaking, reading, and writing English.  

 

How Project Benefits Students

The students will hear the correct verbiage produced by the grant-funded county English Language program. Imagine Learning is an optional literacy-based English program designed to help newcomers develop Basic Interpersonal Language Skills (BICS) and then move into Cognitive Academic Language Skills. (CALP). I am currently on year 2 of the very successful pilot program. I currently work with students in K-5 that speak a language other than English, including: Spanish, Portuguese, Mandarin, French, Russian, Hindi, Urdu and Romanian. My goal is to celebrate their native language and foster their new English language. I am always struggling to secure appropriate headphones that also allow for speaking and listening capabilities. Without the headphones, the program is weakened and cannot provide the support that is intended. The requested (30) headphones will provide the necessary support. Each headphone will be assigned to a specific student and collected at the end of the school year for the following year. Headphones are sanitized, inventoried and stored in gallon-sized bags. This year's program will begin in mid-August and will continue through the summer, 2023. 

 

Expected Outcome(s)

The Non-English and Limited English students that are specifically chosen for the Imagine Learning program will learn the English language skills that are necessary to be at a language level equal to their English-speaking peers. The students will use their newly acquired English language to become competitive, confident, and thriving individuals as they continue their educational experience. English Language acquisition is my ultimate goal.
