Case: ESOL student testing issue Mrs. Clark has an ESOL student that she works one on one with in reading after she teaches a lesson. The student is having trouble with finding a fact and an opinion when reading a given text. The student knows that a fact can be proven true and an opinion is what someone thinks, but the student cannot distinguish between the two in the stories that she reads. What is something Mrs. Clark could do to help her student understand fact and opinion in given texts? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Mrs. Clark can begin by using a lower level text with the student. She needs to model for the student using the lower level text to identify facts and opinions. The teacher could have the student create a T-chart to list facts and opinions. As the student reads have her as herself if this statement is a fact and can be proven. Then have her ask if this statement tells how someone feels. May have the students write down some facts about herself and then list some opinions. Hopefully with the modeling she will then begin to grasp the concept. |
