Class Reflection 1-22-08 and 1-24-08

There are so many different issues that need to be considered when discussing immigration and the education of immigration. There never seems to be that one good solution that works perfectly for everyone. How can we have children in our classrooms who have never stepped foot in a classroom and are 5 grade levels below everyone else in the class. Its not fair for these students to take the time to sit in a classroom in which they don't learn a single thing. The best solution i would say is to start off in classrooms within a school that teach these children the basics of communicating in English. However letting them interact with the whole class during recess, lunch and gym. This also presented controversy within our class about how taking students out of the classroom will effect how they are viewed by other students. I still believe this is the best option for now. There is no way to avoid it all.
