Each of the pictures were blurred for different reasons. The first, Abdulaziz, returned to his home country for a 45 day traditional holiday. The second, Yewon, misplaced her consent form between the my visits and there was not enough time to send home another before presenting this digital story. However; once each form is received, I will be able to clear the pictures for full presentation.
Small classroom-Requires a great deal of Flexibilty Lack of Textbooks appropriate for ELL-Frustrating
Learning about English as a Second Language and Experiencing something New-REWARDING!
