    This case study examines a 14-year-old Korean student named MS who is struggling socially and academically in his ESOL class. MS comes from a high socioeconomic family but attends a lower socioeconomic school. He has a history of being bullied and feels stress from his family. In his ESOL class, he has low reading ability, does not participate, and needs assistance with vocabulary. His teachers want to help him with social skills, independence, and some academic growth. Current approaches include using worksheets instead of oral responses, allowing alternative presentations, and pairing MS with comfortable peers to build confidence before focusing on academics.

    Build
    Implement Reading
    IB Content Fluency

    Intensive reading course: Students will be reading


    2 units per semester short books (Lexile level 2),
    to build fluency in reading
    in the target language, not
    translation.
    Differentiation in class

    In class MS:
    -has a low reading level in L2.
    -does not participate in class discussions.
    -needs assistance and supports in reading and
    vocabulary retention.
    -needs adapted activities to show comprehension (does
    not participate in CCQs like “thumbs up, thumbs down”).
    MS is a quiet, non-verbal student who is new to BH
    Middle School.

    He is still integrating with new peers, and is having


    difficulty in all his classes.

    In the integrated reading class, he was disinterested. He


    did not act out, but did try to avoid reading the book.
    When paired with a co-teacher who used L1, he was
    more willing to try, but needed 100% translation from
    English to Korean, even for simple words.
