WRITING SITUATION
Across the United States, there has been an influx of
immigrants from various countries. Many
of these students are placed in English as a Second Language (ESL) programs to
assist in their acquisition of the English language. Although these students are slowly immersed
in the language, the state testing remains solely in English. Should state testing be provided in alternate
languages for ESL students?
WRITING TASK
Write a letter to the editor of your local
newspaper supporting or opposing the change in testing. Support your position
with reasons, examples, facts, and/or other evidence. Convince your readers to
take your position seriously.
