Identifier	Thesis 1732
Author	Malley, Sarah
Title	An Investigation of Guided Reading Group Instruction For Use With ESL Students
Publisher	Central Connecticut State University
Date	2003
Resource Type	Master's Thesis
Notes	The United States is currently experiencing a large influx of non-English speaking students. The U.S. Department of Education has created two new panels to examine the needs of English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) students. Their goal is to review, research, and provide recommendations for improving and enhancing educational methodologies for these students. There is a pressing need for this information to reach all teachers. Alan Farstrup, Executive Director of the International Reading Association stated "At least 50% of the children living in poverty are attending schools whose language is different from the language spoken in their homes" (IRA, 2002, p. 4). The United States is not alone in this concern as most countries are tackling this issue in an increasingly mobile and transient world. In August 2002, the International Reading Association held a symposium on Multiple Language Literacy in Scotland. IRA President Jerry L. Johns (IRA, 2002, p. 21) stated, "All nations are (Guided Reading with ESL 4) struggling with issues of multilingualism". Symposium attendee, David Klaus said, "… fewer than 10% of the world's 6,800 languages and dialects are used in education today. … 94% of the world's people speak only 4% of the languages" (p. 21). According to United Kingdom's World Bank member Eve Gregory, there is an "inextricable link between culture and cognition through engagement in activities and tasks" (p. 21). Teachers need to create the bridge that will link English language and literacy instruction to the native language and literacy skills of all of our students.
