Extractions: Community Consolidated School District 146 offers a variety of programs to its students. Below you will find information about the programs offered through Special Services , and about our ORE and Band programs. Special Services Programs All disabled students between the ages of 3 and 15 who are the responsibility of School District 146 enjoy the rights and privileges equal to those of all other students in our district. It is the district's primary goal to help all students become contributing members of society, working and interacting together in an inclusionary process. While the district recognizes that there may be some students whose disabilities require that their needs be met outside of the district's schools, the district attempts to include disabled students, to the fullest extent possible, in the educational environment they would be in if they had no disability. This practice is referred to as "inclusion". However, inclusion is a philosophy, not a program. Each disabled student has an individualized educational program (IEP), designed to meet his or her individual needs. A full continuum of programs, support and services are available to meet each student's individual needs. The district also works with other agencies to ensure that all disabled students' needs are met.

You are encouraged to contact her if you have any questions, problems or comments about your experience as a tutor.

Extractions: Using the Internet to teach English for Special Purposes (ESP) - Writing Lesson for Business English One of the problems that faces many English as Second Language (read ESP, ESL, EFL, TEFL, TESOL, TOEFL etc.) teachers is that students expect the teacher to be incredibly knowledgeable about everything ! By using the methods below in the example lesson - actually you will probably need at least two lessons - you can give your students "real world" English in their specific field, help them improve their industrial jargon AND understand how companies in their sector express themselves in written English. You will also pick up quite a lot of useful materials that can be used in future lessons. It's quite a nice little exercise for everyone involved! The Internet offers some truly unique opportunities that can give teaching new impetus and be quite a lot of fun for the students. One of these new opportunities is the ability to translate an entire Internet page from English into a target language, or, vice-versa, translate from another language into English. This ability to translate from English into a target language is especially important in business English. Learners can quickly improve specific target vocabulary, improve writing style. Most importantly, ESP (English for Specific Purposes) students get a feel for how English is used in their applied field.

Thus, TAISM is an inclusive school, with all students receiving services in a mainstream classroom. This approach is in line with the current best practices in United States schools. Every student can learn if given appropriate opportunities. Teachers in TAISM classrooms differentiate instruction, adapting and modifying their lessons to meet the needs of their students.
