| A Year and a Day
Set in a large urban school with a considerable population of English Language Learners, this case considers a policy that obliges immigrant students to take an English Language Arts Exam within one year and one day of entering the school system.
Discussion Questions
- How could Mr. Rodriguez have better helped the parents to advocate for their children?
- Should bilingual teachers continue to work on strengthening literacy skills in the students’ first language?
- Would full immersion in English raise test scores?
