New Vocabulary

The beginning of school has been quite exciting in ESL with over fifty students from all over the world acclimating to a Christ centered school. The Middle School and High school students have been increasing their conversational English through group activities related to their workbooks. Spiritual Emphasis Week became an impetus for many students to learn for the first time words many of us take for granted such as sanctuary, redemption, praise, glory and audacity. It also became a special time to learn how to question and write reflectively. Our latest projects were for International Week; students made presentations with either posters or power points describing where they grew up, comparing and contrasting their hometown with New York City, and predicting where they will be in ten years. The best part was listening to the students ask questions in English about each other’s hometown. It was very enriching for all and enlightening to me.
