Written communication This communication is also used very often in Llantarnam School. Written communication is when a personal communicates with other through letters, reports, and newsletters. This communication can be used to communicate a large quantity of people and it is the most convenient way to do so. Llantarnam School uses this communication to communicate with parents by sending them letter to tell them about their children’s behaviour or any school notice and it is a lot quicker than calling them one by one which is a lot faster, easier and cheaper too. In my opinion this communication is also very useful to an organisation but I don’t think that this is as good as verbal.
It also can make it easier than in the past for a student who switches schools, because now schools broadly have to follow a similar curriculum. The national curriculum was introduced to enable assessment, which also helped to compile league tables. League tables (1988 education act) are another change that has helped the education system. League tables are used to compare the academic achievements of different institutions and parents can use them to decide which school they want their child(ren) to go to. Using league tables is a good thing as if you want your child to go to a good school, you can chose the one most suitable with good education and exam results.
Author: Patricia Velasco Statement 1: “Dual language bilingual education tends to separate the languages quickly, arguing that language separation gives more opportunities to fully develop two “languages”, both the majority as well as minority language” Page: 177 Students benefit from the opportunity to develop and learn through their native language as well as English, and English speakers achieve well academically in an immersion environment. The bilingual environment supports development of both languages and enhances students' self-esteem and cross-cultural understanding. When separating both languages students tend to learn quickly because they are not overwhelm with a lot of information at once. Author: Ofelia Garcia Statement:
Ever since I took classes where I learned about various countries and their cultures, it has always been my dream to be bilingual. In so many places around the world, children begin to learn English at a very young age. This has always been very important because the United States is a very powerful independent country, unlike many of the smaller countries with failing economies. This brings me to one of Gonzales’s main points, that immigrants don’t want to come to the United States, but have to for a better life. Many people think immigrants are willingly “taking over” the United States, but I agree with Gonzalez.
Charter Schools: A Better Choice for Parents The recent growth of Charter schools in America is a welcome change for many parents who want choice in education. Students and families are recognizing the real benefits Charter schools have to offer. Parents want schools that are safe, cultivate a positive attitude about learning, and best fit their children’s abilities and interests (Richwine & Heritage 2010). Charter schools are a better option than public schools because charter schools offer smaller classes, the faculty has the ability to use experimentation with different teaching methods and parents are able to be more involved in the school as a whole. Smaller class sizes are not only beneficial to students but to teachers as well.
A.1.a. Pre-K Strengths Because of the ever changing demographics in our system this can be very beneficial and has some great advantages with our program. With more non-English speaking children coming into our system this is encouraging our teachers to learn another language. In return it is helping with the language barrier we are facing in our current days. Our system could also look into hiring more teachers with the added benefit of speaking multiple languages and creating more jobs in our area.
George studied English with the author so that he may communicate better with his co-workers. If George improves his English significantly, he may find better jobs with higher salaries, or he may go to school for better education and get even better opportunities. It is typical at first to be in a harsh environment. However, with strong determination, George can achieve the American Dream. Staying on the road to the American Dream is not easy.
Alexa Montenegro Feb-15-2012 Speech Why Should You Learn Spanish? The major current languages in the United States are English, Spanish, and Chinese, with the last two quickly gaining prominence; about 17.9 percent of Americans speak a language other than English at home. Keeping this in mind, it is almost essential today to learn a second language. Being bi-, tri- or multilingual has many advantages, the most obvious being that one can communicate with exchange students, immigrants, and fellow online gamers, chatters, and forum users, as well as to bridge cultures and societies through lingual unity and a better understanding. It also can give a person a fresh eye for their own society and culture, and even improve their understanding of the mechanics of one's own language, all by comparison.
As far as they have learnt enough English, they can then make the transition into the main classes at schools. The belief that English unites us as a nation is very nationalistic. Hayakawa cites the example of Japanese and Chinese immigrants in California. Before and after the World War II, relations between these two groups
The languages spoken in the family home, the food and clothing selected for children are also important influences. The values held by the family may be related to ethnicity. Francis and Archer (2006) show how British Chinese families value educational achievement. The family plays a crucial role in the educational success of their children, with families making considerable sacrifices to ensure success for their children, often going without new consumer goods in order to pay private school fees. However, this does not mean that children blindly follow the guidance of their family.
