Reading Materials to Support Language Acquisition

Reading Materials to Support Language Acquisition

World Language teachers in all four middle schools will use these books and online reading programs to support language acquisition. These reading materials will help us pilot acquisition centered teaching methods we learned this year. We will use the reading materials to facilitate lessons that allow
students to discuss characters of different identities and backgrounds. Many of the stories explore the conflicts in the lives of people who are from a variety of countries and cultural backgrounds. The materials help to facilitate conversations about how our own backgrounds and identities shape who we are and how we think.
