Education

Ages 6 to 9
Have a class discussion about the challenges English second-language learners face (frustration, humiliation). Watch the film. Have students portray, in drawing or writing, alternate problems that could arise in a school/classroom and how those problems could be solved. Then have students brainstorm ways to help those struggling with the language. A good way to motivate/encourage struggling language learners.
