Part 2
I currently work in a faith school Guru Nanak Sikh Academy as a teaching assistant where 93% of the pupil’s first language is not English. I closely work with two students in year 6 student A is an EAL student with SEN needs who is disruptive in classroom and calls out and Student B is an EAL student with communication difficulties. Student A’s needs would be different from student B and requires additional support in academic and social needs.

According to (Fulton, 2016, pg. 254) “The majority of the children in the world are bilingual.” Students who come into schools with very little or no understanding of the English Language, need a lot of encouragement to learn quickly so they can access all areas of the curriculum. They may …show more content…

The reason for this support is because the students are below their age-related reading level as there is lack of understanding of the text they read. Guided reading supports as they develop skills that would help them to read independently, fluently and by reading out load builds confidence. We also discuss about behaviour inside classroom and calling out. Furthermore we go through the reading strategies such as looking for context clues, using inferenced and understanding syntax. Students are able to learn and support one another. Benefits of supporting the students in guided reading is that students will develop as individual readers and understand the context of what they are reading whilst the teacher is then available for support and …show more content…

Working with EAL students I understand that communication can be difficult therefore I make sure that verbal communication is made more visual. For example; have a visual image and the word written in English underneath the image. According to the school policy the work needs to be differentiated not only to allow students to access the curriculum but to move their language on so that they can use higher order learning skills. Many students acquire the ability to communicate on a day to day basis in English quickly, on the other the level of language which is needed for academic study is much deeper and more detailed which can require support for up to ten years. EAL student is in the centre of the English language attainment process and operates within a learning environment. Socio-culture factors impact upon the EAL learner’s language, cognitive and academic development.
(Vygotsky, 1978 ST3 pg. 78) theory of sociocultural perspective where the of learning emphasises the social and cultural of learning and the role that adult plays in supporting that learning (Open University, 2016 pg. 78) by making sure students are learning in a socially contracted environment as a teaching assistant I imply group activities for EAL students where the students are able to build their confidence by doing group activities and

As a teacher, I am committed to give each of my students the right to receive help. Just because a student is having trouble pronouncing the English language I know that I shouldn’t talk down on them or ignore them because they are not grasping the language better than others. I am entitled to equally teach my students and find ways to help them better their learning. As a bilingual teacher, I will find programs or other activities that I know can help them, so that they can be successful.

English-language learners (ELLs) with special needs belong to a minority group and require specific direction for educators on how to help these students in the school context and how to help to improve their educational outcomes.

Though, the educational needs of ELLs are diverse and rather complicated. English language learners face many obstacles due to their cultural and linguistic diversity.

There are students in school whose first language might be Spanish, Chinese, or Vietnamese, among others. Students who do not understand English are considered English learners (ELs) and they “need help in learning to speak, read, and write in English” (Kauchak & Eggen, 2017, p. 84). There are four programs that teachers can incorporate in response to language diversity. One program is referred to as bilingual maintenance. In a bilingual maintenance program, students continue to use their primary language while “the emphasis on English …increases in each subsequent grade” (Kauchak & Eggen, 2017, p. 85).

Theoretical framework: listening while reading Reading fluency can be fostered through a process called assisted reading (Rasinski &Hoffman, 2003). Assisted reading, also called Listening while reading (LWR), involves having the student read silently while simultaneously listening to a fluent rendition of the reading passage. The auditory version of the reading can be performed by a fluent adult reader or by the utilization of various technological devises. There is a robust body of research evincing that LWR can be an effective method for fluency instruction. Heckelman (1969), Chomsky (1976), and Carbo (1978) have used variations of the method with poor elementary readers.

Chall and Stahl (2009) articulated the importance of good teaching and effective school leadership in promoting reading achievement. It was mentioned that learners tend to learn to read better if a strong leader (the teacher or the school principal) sets high expectations about reading achievement. Moreover, the amount of direct instruction in reading and the amount of time learners spend in reading related activities also affect reading development. These, however, call for a rich reading environment with the collaboration of the family.

For many children reading text aloud helps to develop their skills as active listeners. Listening how the teacher reads a text demonstrates a model for fluent reading and pronunciation of unfamiliar words. Read aloud also maintains each student’s participation and focusing on how the reading process works. Reading aloud allows students not only to understand the plot of the story, but also catch the meaning beyond the text. Reading aloud motivates students to read and provides many benefits in building vocabulary, learning the reading process in a meaningful context, modeling fluency, and simply practice how to think-aloud.
