I found this site to be very interesting. This site stated that english language learners (ELLs) come to school with a wide variety of background knowledge, language, and literacy skills. The schooling experience of ELLs is impacted by many factors such as time in school, quality of instruction, transiency, home environment, and past emotional experiences in school. The following vignettes illustrate some of these differences.
The article illustrates varios characteristics of ELL students. And if appropriate programs are offered, ELL student have a better opportunity to develop literacy skills early in their school careers (pre-kindergarten to second grade) .
