The root cause of this is globalization and the need for the United States catch up to international competitors to expand international business. This field often requires languages other than English.

My project addresses students that are interested in learning languages from a young age - elementary school students, beginning with students on the Upper East Side.]]> 2023-06-24 00:09:35 UTC https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631270677 adrianber7 https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631274979 Partner with the City Councilmembers on the Upper East Side to introduce a language class to the incoming kindergarten class of 2025 at PS 183. By their graduation in 2031, they will have a basis for proficiency in one language other than english.]]> 2023-06-24 00:26:39 UTC https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631274979 adrianber7 https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631276328 Offering a language proficiency exam in the 5th grade to the class of 2031 at PS 183, in order to receive language credits and a seal of biliteracy. This credit will allow students to qualify for higher level language courses in middle school and beyond.]]> 2023-06-24 00:29:56 UTC https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631276328 adrianber7 https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631277809 The first step will be to inform families who are interested in taking excelled language classes at PS 183. I will send out a mass email with a google form to see which languages shall be offered.

I will start step one in July of 2026, which is when students will begin kindergarten. I will finish step one by September of 2026.

I will need to propose the curriculum to the New York City Department of Education before this step is completed so that it can be approved.]]> 2023-06-24 00:37:04 UTC https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631277809 adrianber7 https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631277862 The second step will be to recruit local teachers for these languages.

I will start step two in August and will have to be done by August.

I will need to confirm the availability of qualified language teachers to complete this step.]]> 2023-06-24 00:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631277862 adrianber7 https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631487778 The third step will be to ensure that all students are given their closest preference. Additionally, a curriculum will be created that matches basic and intermediate standards of language learning.

I will start step three simultaneously with step two.

I will need the approval of the DOE and an international language council to complete this step.]]> 2023-06-24 16:02:25 UTC https://padlet.com/adrianber7/cdsquckh7rim1z0/wish/2631487778
