Relevance of Curriculum ReviewThe topic of my research is to uncover why English Language Learners (ELLs) struggle throughout their education with literature, language and shows that the two are closely linked. This close relationship is evident because, obviously, literature presupposes language. It is inconceivable to discuss literature without referring to language. But based on traditional practice at the high school level in the El Centro Elementary School District, it appears that literature and English language are treated as two separate school subjects. Through this dichotomy, literature teachers devote their teaching period to a large extent to teaching the histories, contents and socio-cultural, economic and religious implications of prescribed literary texts, without giving much importance to language. components of texts (Richard C. Ihejirika vol 3). In the end, some students performed very well on literature exams but poorly on English language exams. It has therefore been suggested that this relationship should be explored and exploited in order to improve the effective teaching and learning of English literature and language at the secondary level so that learners possess a high level of competence in the use of the English language, which would ultimately go a long way towards remedying the apparently poor academic performance at the secondary and tertiary levels of education in ECESD. Program goals will establish robust and meaningful staff development to improve English language learners in writing and literacy. These development days form the basis for researching, learning and planning a good solid work center...... middle of paper ...... to play for these groups, to At this point, the only good answer is that it depends. But based on expert comments, we can provide insight into the context, the challenges ahead, and the current pace of progress (school administrator p 36). The article opened my eyes. After reading it, I thought about my whole school. We are 85% Hispanic (at least 50% of those not fluent) and entering our third year of academic improvement. We are also always looking for the answer to improve test results. Improving vocabulary might just be the solution! I really don't hear many of our teachers doing that much with vocabulary and grammar. . I am constantly reminded of how my beginners feel when I hear Spanish spoken. It seems like they talk so fast and if they slowed down and articulated a little more clearly it would help them with their vocabulary..
