Studying the theories and terms in science classes can be difficult, but becomes even more so when you’re not familiar with the language it’s taught in. However, a dual immersion classroom at Lincoln Elementary and member group at Madison Audubon Society have found a way to bridge the barrier between ESL students and local environmental enthusiasts: a love of birds.
Thanks to the hands-on partnership between Lincoln and Madison Audubon, Madison Metropolitan School District students have become more engaged while learning about the way their world works and Audubon staff have learned new bird-related words in a variety of languages!
