Case: ESOL Student Not Receiving Help
In a fifth grade ESOL inclusive classroom there are three students that came to the United States this year. One from El Salvador, one from Puerto Rico and the other from Mexico(they came the latest in the year). The students from El Salvador and Puerto Rico seemed to be doing very well socially and academically. The student from Mexico seemed to be lacking in both areas. While working in math groups, I noticed the student was simply copying the work of another. The teacher was sitting at the table as well but did not seem to mind it. I felt ultimately the student was not receiving the help they needed to complete the standardized test they were preparing for or in life. What strategies could help this student succeed?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think that one of the solutions would be to determine the academic level of Mathematics of the student from Mexico. Maybe the student from Mexico does not have basic Math skills. The teacher needs to acknowledge this problem and seek help for the student. I would use manipulatives to try to explain basic Math operations such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication. I would also contact a Spanish bilingual assistant and ask her to help me with the student from Mexico. |

Comments: I think this is a great solution. The ESOL teacher will be able to give you some clarity as to the level the student is on along with the teacher. Also in all schools there is Math games on the computer that could help both Math and English Language acquisitions. Manipulative are great in Math. |

Comments: I agree with this solution, the student might not have a strong math foundation and will need help catching up. I like the idea of using manipulatives, because this will be a good base point to see if where the student is at. Manipulatives might be too easy, in which case the difficulty level could be increased, or the student might struggle, meaning they need to spend some time working with the basics. |
