Entry Five

   I would have to say that I definitely see support for English learners because I am doing my service-learning in an English Immersion Program. This program is all about helping students to better learn English. The classes I am working with focuses solely on English and get support through one-on-one fluency readings, small group readings, and individual and class activities.
    I would have to say that some of what I see in my service-learning classroom is a result of Brown v. Board of Education, a variety of other court cases, and the No Child Left Behind Act. I can tell due to what appears to be a somewhat wide range of race diversity within the classroom, but the main ones being Caucasian, African American, and Hispanic. Along with having multiple races I am more than sure each has their own religious beliefs. 
    Each student is given an equal opportunity to learn with no bias by participating in the same activities as everyone else. Although those who need that extra help in learning English are given more one-on-one activities to help prevent them from falling behind and not learning.
