Role Profile:
The primary purpose of ESL support is to support up to 50% of the students who are very low in their English language development. Each student is assessed upon admittance for a minimal English language level, but with the support of ESL teachers, the schools are able to accept students with lower English language skills.
The FNS schools are able to advance the achievement level of students who are 2-3 years behind their peers, by providing pull-out individual and small group support to ESL learners, thus enabling them to function in a “regular” classroom.
• Students should be working on developing all aspects of their language acquisition, on a regular basis: Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing.
• MLFNS ELL textbooks, if used (optional), are to be supplemented with engaging content and learning activities that mirror the kinds of learning opportunities students would be engaging in with their BC classes.
o Within the ELS classes, students should be regularly engaging in learning opportunities that help to develop the BC Core Competencies: Communication, Critical Thinking, Creative Thinking, and Personal and Social Responsibility.
• Students should have direct instruction and learning opportunities to support their “core” subjects in their BC classrooms, particularly, English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies.
o ELS teachers should regularly collaborate with their BC teacher colleagues to identify areas of support and need for the students, across the curriculum.
• ELS teachers should refer to the BC curriculum documents as a reference for the skills and learning targets students should be prepared to achieve.
o These are the “Curricular Competencies” and “Content” areas of the documents.
Curriculum Introduction:
The BC Ministry of Education has outlined five levels of ELL for three age groups (K-3; 4-7; 8-12). Our ELS program provides supports to these students:
Level 1 (Beginning) – minimal functional English
Level 2 (Developing) – student knows individual words – concrete nouns – perhaps colors, shapes, etc.
Level 3 (Expanding) – student can manage the everyday language of the classroom and social environment – e.g. please bring a pencil and your library book; stand in line at the door.
Level 4 (Consolidating) – student has survival academic language – enough academic language to manage in a BC content classroom such as Math or Science
Level 5 (Bridging) – student is nearing full, unmodified BC program performance – perhaps with ELL markers visible, especially in writing
