Woodrow Wilson is home to K-5 Portuguese/English bilingual program. We support our students in their acquisition of English in the four areas of literacy: listening, speaking, reading and writing. We use a specific curriculum using a well-researched program by Hampton-Brown called Avenues (www.hbavenues.com) The Avenues program is aligned with the Massachusetts ESL standards. In order to maximize student learning children are grouped by language proficiency levels and we work daily with these groups in our ESL center. Altogether we support 14 classrooms. Through songs, read alouds, and many other multi-sensory activities we are developing language that students need to succeed both academically and socially.
