ESOL Student resources
There is an ESOL student from Mexico who speaks very little English. He cannot read or write in English or his home language. He is using different software programs to help. Are there any other solutions? Resources? Or activities he can do? |

It could be important to ensure that there are many visuals provided for said student. Additionally, keep a translating dictionary to help the student communicate more! If there are other students in the classroom that speak the same language, the student may feel more comfortable with them. |

I think communicating with the family to let them know that you are having trouble communicating with the student, can let the parents be included on the students education as well as gain information on what he has learned previously. Even observing the dynamics of the home, seeing how the parents and family communicates with the student can be helpful when thinking about the student being in the classroom. |

A good resource that is used in the district I work in is Imagine Learning. It is a literacy software that helps ESOL students learn English. Also, reaching out to the ESOL teacher for the school is another great resource. As well as a translation app. |

Putting up classroom labels in Spanish and English can help the student learn names of areas and objects in the classroom. I would also give differentiation for lessons like scaffolded worksheets on foundational content like shapes, colors, numbers and letters. |

You could provide a small notebook with common words used in class with the translation in Spanish as well. For example, you could have certain math-related words on one page, simple common words page such as the bathroom, notebook, and lunchtime with the translations as well. Additionally, you could also write the schedule in the notebook so that the student is prepared for the day and can plan for days ahead of time. |

Use visual aids, flashcards, and images to help him associate words with pictures, facilitating comprehension. Help him connect words to pictures by using photos, flashcards, and visual aides to improve comprehension. Contact an ESL (English as a Second Language) expert or teacher that can offer the student specific language teaching that is suited to their needs. Pair him up with a peer who speaks English well and can help him learn the language through interactive activities and discussions. To fill the gap and aid in his language development, use dual-lingual books or materials that incorporate both English and his home language. |

Label everything that is humanly possible. The more the child sees the words he will be needing to use, the easier it will be for him or her to be immersed into it. Try to encourage the child to use translation software as a tool to communicate rather than fall back on it and not learning the language. |
