Title III & IX accomplishments

1. 1 Dr. Jason M. Eitner  Title III Overview and Accomplishments  Learning a langage in the country you reside is paramount for your life, despite                             today’s technology; language is still an essential element of global competence.                     The     ​ ability to communicate with respect and cultural understanding in more than one                         language is just as important. Such competence is developed and demonstrated by                         investigating the world, recognizing and weighing perspectives, acquiring and applying                     disciplinary and interdisciplinary knowledge, communicating ideas, and taking action.                   Global competence is fundamental to the experience of learning languages whether in                         classrooms, through virtual connections, or by everyday immmersion and experiences.                     Language learning contributes an important means to both communicate and interact                       in order to participate in multilingual communities at home and around the world.                           This interaction develops the disposition to explore the perspectives behind the                       products and practices of a culture and to value such intercultural experiences. 

2. 2    As a District, we are committed to providing your child with the language skills and                               cultural   competencies   essential   to   global   citizenship.   Developing   a   strong   communications ability via language proficiency in English enhances a students’ 21​st                       century skill set so they are more marketable in the areas of trade, business,                             marketing, national security, military, law, philosophy, STEM, public health, art, film,                       music, dance, fashion, and even cuisine. Additionally, students gain the personal                       satisfaction of their ability to understand the perspectives of other people and to                           communicate with them.      ELL students experience approximately 60% immersion in the elementary setting, and                       by high school, we strive for 1 to 2 periods of ELL time at most. The following points                                     below are examples of how we are teaching your child to succeed in our country:  ● Language Arts/English  ○ Develop an ability to communicate effectively for a variety of purposes                       and audiences  ○ Integrate reading, writing, speaking, listening and thinking  ● Social studies  ○ Become interested, informed and active participants in the world both                     locally and globally  ● Science  ○ Develop skills in problem-solving, gathering and interpreting data  ○ Investigate the natural world in the world cultures studied  ● Health education  ○ Develop awareness of the mental, social, physical and emotional aspects                     of a healthy individual  ○ Draw conclusions about cultural comparisons of these aspects  ● Technology and computer education  ○ Engage in hands-on, problem-solving activities related to real-world                 issues through the use of numerous applications 

3. 3 ○ Conduct online research to gain insight into products, practices, and                     perspectives of world cultures  ○ Use technology to collaborate and problem-solve with native speakers  ● Arts   ○ Explore the perspective and products of the arts in other cultures  ○ Express oneself creatively    It is our goal that the programs are designed to help the each student become                               sufficiently proficient in English in orer to to participate in English-language activities.                         English language learners remain in the program until they are proficient in English.                           While in ESL, they also attend regular classes in English. Students enter the ESL and                               bilingual education program after it has been determined through testing that their                         English proficiency is limited. State guidelines are followed to determine their                       proficiency level. Teachers work with each student to build their language proficiency                         and also support their understanding of the English-speaking content areas.   An example of various curriculum maps that I have created are on the next pages.
