  • Summary

  • Hi. My name is David Pitts. I am a public school educator who has worked with Emergent Bilingual, ESL or EL students for sixteen years. I want to share information for parents to understand how schools support English Learner students and how you can be the best advocate for your child. I also have interests in language, philosophy and legal precedent as it relates to language and education in the United States. All of these important topics have direct impact on the education of the earliest of learners. In summary, good language education leads to peace. Follow along.

    Comprehension Hypothesis and Profit
    May 9 2024

    This is a short follow up to the previous episode where I review Stephen Krashen's Article on SIOP claims. In this interview on YouTube, link below, Krashen claims that if we are serious about the Comprehension Hypothesis it could have a significant financial impact on the publishing industry. These conversations have forced me to pause and reconsider information I share with teachers regarding efficacy of instructional strategies. Here is link to full interview this short clip comes from.
