The "Dirty War"

The "Dirty War"

ome extraordinary things have

been happening over the past

few weeks in Latin America. In

Argentina the government has passed

laws to remove the immunity from

prosecution from members of the

military who took part in the

disappearances and torture during the

"dirty war" against the left in the 70s

and early 80s. This means that

Argentinians will be able to examine

what happened during those dark

years and to see who was responsible

and why they were unpunished for so

long. Argentina's popular new

president, Nestor Kirchner supports

these measures.

In Chile last month President Lagos

announced plans to investigate the

terrible period in his country's history

that followed the 1973 military coup.

His measures would allow immunity

to some of those who took part in the

atrocities in return for their

cooperation in the investigation into

what happened to the more than

3,000 who were killed by the military.

In Peru last month a report was

published about the events of the

1980s, when 60,000 died or

"disappeared." This, too, could lead to

prosecutions, and an investigation of

what happened and why.

The reaction to these developments

has been mixed. The 1970s and 80s

were an extremely painful time. Some

conservative commentators suggest

that these events are now best

forgotten so that people can get on

with their lives. Others have followed

President Bush and suggested that all

terrorists are "evil" and "hate

freedom". When you deal with people

like this, they say, any methods are

allowable. Many of them are asking

for a general amnesty because the

militaries in the three countries say

they were all fighting communist or

extremist elements and they had to

fight fire with fire. They argue that war

is war and both sides do terrible,

demonic things that you cannot

investigate fairly in peacetime. This is a

dangerous argument, which is invalid

on the basis of simple numbers.

In Argentina, for example, leftist

guerrillas were responsible for an

estimated 600 deaths, while the state

was responsible for 15,000 killings

and disappearances. In Chile the

figures were 150 killed by guerrillas

and 3,000 by the military. In Peru the

guerrillas killed a lot more, but the

state killed around 20,000 people. In

all three countries the state allowed

murders and torture to take place.

The actions of the guerrillas were

punishable by law and through the

courts. The state, on the other hand,

could do what it liked. These are

matters not just for the countries

concerned but also for the

international community, and there

are lessons to be learned today.

President Carter was the only one to

criticise the human rights abuses in

Argentina. The then US secretary of

state, Henry Kissinger, helped to

organise the coup in Chile and

celebrated when it happened. It is a

very dangerous road when a country

suspends its laws because of

"terrorism".

In 1974.there was a large

advertisement in the streets of Buenos

Aires with the message: Silence is

Health. The purpose of the sign was to

stop motorists using their car horns,

but it seemed at the time to carry a

much deeper meaning. That silence is

finally being broken. Those courageous

people who have fought for justice

over the years in Argentina, Chile and

Peru, deserve the world's admiration

and encouragement.

            So how can classroom teachers accommodate ESL students in their classrooms? What are some tips that all teachers can utilize to facilitate their LEP students’ learning of English? What follows is a variety of strategies that all teachers in all classes can employ successfully with ELLs.

Speak clearly and in standard English.

            Teachers need to model academic English with clear pronunciation and diction. Teachers should also refrain from using slang

Position yourself so that the ESL student can see your face when you are speaking.

            Language learners rely on both verbal and nonverbal cues. Therefore, beginning ELLs will want to watch your mouth when you speak since they are not only hearing the pronunciation but they are also watching the words as you form them with your lips. Also, speaking while facing away from the class can muffle your voice, for example if you are speaking toward the chalk board or wall. Additionally, novice ESL students rely not only on being able to see your mouth when you are speaking but also on watching your face for other nonverbal cues to meaning.

Assign a "buddy" to your ESL student.

            These buddies should be strong students who will help the ELL become inducted into the class and into the school. Initially, seat the ESL student next to the buddy so that the buddy can guide the student and answer questions at any point in the class in as unobtrusive a manner as possible.

Learn and use the student’s

            Foreign names can be a challenge for teachers, but it is important to practice their pronunciation. Students tend to say their names quickly; ask them to repeat their name slowly, and tell them you want to learn how to say their name correctly. If you have not received any written information from the administration in the form of student files, ask the student to write his or her name for you. At the elementary school level, do not give the student an English name to make it easier for you or the rest of the class to remember or to pronounce.

For middle school and high school students, ask the student what he or she would like to be called.

At the middle school and high school levels, some ESL students intentionally change their names to English names because they want to blend in with their American classmates. Honor their choices.

Be as visual as possible.

            It is good to say something in clear, concise English; it is even better to have a picture or visual to use while you are speaking that reinforces what you are saying. For example, if you are teaching a science unit on the water cycle, have as many pictures to visualize each part of the cycle as possible.

Comprehension precedes production.

            Beginning ESL students understand more than they are able to produce orally. Look for other ways for students to demonstrate comprehension. If you are teaching the science concept of the water cycle, have the student put visuals in the correct sequence of the water cycle to demonstrate comprehension of the topic. Ability to verbalize will follow. Also, do not simply ask students "Do you understand?" to check for comprehension. They will almost always say "yes" to avoid embarrassment. Rather, ask students to demonstrate (if they are preverbal) or to repeat what they understood you to say.

If students can say it, they can write it.

            In native language development, the normal progression of skills is first to say something and then to be able to read and write what one can say. Therefore, abundant oral practice needs to be made available to students in order to afford them the first steps of creating with language. The converse of this phenomenon is also true; if students are not able to produce an idea orally, they will probably not be able to write it. A corollary to this axiom is that students will usually write at the level at which they speak. Although there will be some students who will read and write at a higher level than their speaking ability, this tends not to be the norm. This notion becomes clearer when we think of the ability of our native-English-speaking students. It is usually true that our best writers and readers are those who have the highest level of spoken language.

Speaking louder does not aid in comprehension.

            Unless the student is hearing impaired, speaking louder does not aid in comprehension. Also, speaking in an exaggerated, slow fashion only embarrasses the ELL student and does not facilitate comprehension.

Create certain predictable routines in your class.

            For example, at the elementary school level, start each day with taking attendance, reading the lunch options out loud, and making announcements. If your cafeteria has dedicated lunch days, such as hot dogs on Mondays and hamburgers on Tuesdays, you may wish to have pictures of the meals for your novice ESL students. An example of a routine at the middle and high school levels would be to have homework assignments written in the same corner of the chalkboard each day. If assignments are listed on the Internet, a reminder on the chalkboard that you point to each day will help the ESL students incorporate this into their daily habits.

Learn as much as you can about the countries represented in your class.

            As often as possible, honor the diversity in your classroom. You can do this through reading assignments about a particular culture that the entire class reads, class discussions about cultural practices, or assignments where the students can speak or write about their heritages. Also, learning about the cultures represented in your classroom may explain some resistant behavior or behavioral problems. For example, in some countries, students are taught in single-sex classrooms by teachers of the same sex, so some boys have never had female teachers and some girls have never had male teachers.

Keep a student’s linguistic ability in mind when selecting reading assignments.

            Learning to read is a major key to any student’s success. Research says that to remain academically competitive, a student should be able to read at grade level by the end of the second grade. Imagine, then, the challenges for LEP students who arrive in the United States in middle or high school. Those challenges are compounded if the students cannot read in their native language. The teacher must plan for differentiated instruction. For example, teachers can help beginning language learners read for key points or underline topic sentences. You can also provide students with essential core vocabulary words for the lesson. The number of words should be manageable so that the student does not become overwhelmed.

A smile is international.

A smile from the teacher is worth far more than the time and energy it takes. Smiles help to assuage fears and doubts.

Final Thoughts

            In conclusion, we need to remember that every student yearns to be successful. Teachers therefore must provide ways to help students achieve their academic goals. We are able to facilitate student success when we return to the original premise of this article: good teaching is good teaching. By incorporating a variety of teaching styles, accommodating instructional delivery, and motivating students to learn, we are best able to help English language learners reach their goal of becoming competent and productive communicators in English. 

            Teachers are always looking for ways to improve in the classroom; to assist with any of your New Year's resolutions that relate to instruction, I will recommend five specific and measurable actions you can implement to assist ELL learning in 2009. To increase the likelihood of success and continuity, I suggest teachers pick one item and stick to it for the rest of the year. It is better to do one thing consistently and do it well than to try to do all five and possibly lose focus and motivation, becoming a Jack of all trades and master of none. I also suggest teachers employ the "support group" method to ensure success and use the chosen strategy as a topic for a professional learning community. Sharing successes and challenges with colleagues will help you all grow professionally, and more students will benefit academically.

All of the following strategies have been featured on the Colorín Colorado website, and the Hotlinks section has links to helpful articles and websites for further support. When choosing an instructional strategy, frame it as a specific and measurable goal and display it next to your desk to remind you of what you want to accomplish.
