After meeting with you (Professor Chandler), we came up with the
research question, “What kinds of social interactions with native speaking
students help ELL students fit in to the classroom?” I will be using this as my
thesis statement once I find out more information on the topic. I will be
studying a foreign student in a kindergarten class. There are different terms
that I will need to define such as:
-fit in
-Native speaking
-ELL
-social interaction
I will also need to find ways to measure what I am looking
for; measures of fitting in. I need to know how the teacher’s role plays its
part in social interaction with the ELL student. I plan on using sources from
the Google scholar website. I will collect my information from the kindergarten
class where I am doing my junior field experience. I will study one subject and
will conduct an interview with the teacher as well as observe the student.
