What is WikiSpaces?
WikiSpaces is used to edit information into a site where members of a group can see changed information with groups members awareness. Changes can be made at anytime. The site can display images, links, and informational resources of all kinds on ESL topics. The purpose of our wiki is to provide information that aids teachers with how to properly deal with ESL students. We have information containing activities that help improve English skills, how technology can help ESL students, and more activities about developing intercultural orientation in schools, classrooms and communities.

How to Navigate The Wiki
Navigating to different subpages requires group members to simply click on desired member's name listed on the left hand column under Pages.

Nealani: //Activities For Improving English Skills//
I am twenty years old and I am a junior in Southern Utah University majoring in Elementary Education with emphasis on ESL. My ethnicity is Hawaiian. My name means "calmness of the heavens." I was recently married in November of 2010. I am the oldest of three children with amazing parents in St. George and Cedar City, Utah. I have the greatest family on earth!

Brittany: //** Using Technology In Helping ESL Students **//
I am 23 years old and a senior at SUU. Like Nealani, I am majoring in Elementary Education with my endorsement in ESL. I am doing the summer block and then will do my student teaching at East Elementary here in Cedar in the fall. I have been married for almost four years and love the life and career I have chosen.

**Micah: //Developing an Intercultural Orientation in Schools, Classrooms, and Communities//** I am 24 years old and will be a junior after this semester at SUU. I am majoring in Criminal Justice with a minor in Spanish. I joined the National Guard my senior year in high school, and am enjoying that. I am married with a daughter and another child that will arrive in November. Although I'm not planning on being a teacher, I do love teaching and that is why I am taking two ESL classes as electives, it is something I have definitely enjoyed.
