英语作为第二语言

的国际学生

加速学校热烈欢迎

国际学生，并且鼓

励他们申请加入。

----------------------------------

英语作为第二

语言的教育历程。

我们有关教育的活动和郊游

使得学生能够参观和了解许多历

史和地理景点。

郊游给学生一个临场机会

学习美国的语言和文化。

每一个星期包括几次郊游。

英语 作为共 同 语 言。

学生们在行前准备笔计本，在路途中他们做笔记。

学生和老师 在校车里讨 论 郊 游事项 ，学生必须上交郊游的作文。

---------------------------------

国际学生有很多收获

加速学校的外籍学生在美国国家 标准化考试中， 他们的阅读，文法及数学均取得显著的进步。

自从1991年来，成绩在3.5级水平上的学生经过平均32 小时的加速学校的学习可在以上三个学科上提高一级。

学生从3.5 年级以下平均要花54 个小时升一年级。

速学校首创的加速语言取得了这些戏剧性的近步。

加速语言有几个特色，其中包括功课材料，强化师生支持，加上强烈的动员项目。

英语作为第二语言的学生平均一年写3000 页英语。

英语口语的熟练程度是难以测量的，

但是观查者和学生都对我们的英语做为第二语言的学生在几个月后所能取得的熟练程度感到吃惊。

寄属与接待家庭

我们帮住外地的学生

安排食宿。

我们比较喜欢把学生放在美国家庭能提供社交活动和有价值的注意力。

我们的寄宿家长给我们的学生提供了极有效的

支持性的家庭环镜。

我们推荐的家庭是要经过筛选和训练，他们对我们的学校起了积极的支持作用。

有些寄宿家庭已经有别的学校的小孩或者已经扶养了他们的自己的小孩。

这就给他们提供有价值的管理我们学生的经验。

寄宿家庭对待我们的学生就象他们自己的小孩，并且给学生单独的房间。

寄宿家长给学生制订合理的时间和遵守严格的制度。

寄宿家庭的住址是不重要的因为学校的老师会接送我们的学生。

International
Students ESL

International students
are warmly welcomed into
the Accelerated Schools community
and are encouraged
to apply.
-----------------------------------

Educational trips
that teach ESL.

Our educational tours and field trips
explore hundreds of historical
and geological sites.

Field trip participation adds
a
“hands-on”
opportunity
to learn American language
and culture.

Several field trips
are scheduled each week.

The only common language used
is English.

Students prepare notes
prior
to the trip and take notes
during the trip.



Students and teachers discuss
the tour features in the vans,

and students write papers
the next day in English based
on their trip experience.
--------------------------------


INTERNATIONAL
STUDENTS MAKE
MAJOR GAINS

ESL students at Accelerated Schools
make notable academic progress
as measured by nationally recognized
standardized tests in reading,
language and math.

Since 1991,
students starting above the 3.5
grade level averaged 32 hours
to accomplish a one year gain
in the three subject areas.

Students starting below
the 3.5 grade level averaged
54 hours per grade gain.

These dramatic advances
were accomplished
with
the Accelerated Language Programs
pioneered at Accelerated Schools.

Accelerated Language features
multiple exposures
to curriculum materials,

intensive teacher and peer support,

plus a strong motivational program.

ESL students average more than
3000 pages of writing
in English per year.

Fluency in spoken English
is hard
to measure,

but observers and students
have been happily surprised
at the high level of English fluency
our ESL students can demonstrate
after a few months.

BOARDING FACILITIES
WITH HOST FAMILIES

We help arrange room and board
for our out of town students.

We prefer placement
with a
“host family”
who can provide
valuable attention
and some social activities
for the student.

The supportive family environment
provided by our substitute parents
has proven most effective
for our students.

The families we recommend
have been screened and trained
to support our positive
reinforcement program.

Some substitute families
have other children
in their homes or have already
reared their children.

This gives them a valuable
perspective
for dealing
with our students.

Students are treated as members
of the substitute family
and are responsible
for the care
of their own private room.

They are expected
to keep
reasonable hours
for their age group and follow
tailored rules
for each situation.

The host family's geographical
location within the metro area
isn't important as teachers
pick up and drop off students.
