Hello everybody my name is Cecilia this is my first time writing a blog for AIWA. I am in the English Learner Development (ELD) Presentation group in AIWA, which means we were responsible for surveying and talking about our campaign to two ELD classrooms. On April 19 my partner, Angelina Li, and me, did a presentation about AIWA at Oakland High School to the ELD students about what a Seal of Biliteracy is and how will it help them in school and in the future. During our presentation the ELD students focued on our presentation and asked many questions. Angelina and me also passed out a survey to the ELD students to let them fill out to see how much they wanted a Seal of Biliteracy. At the end of our presentation we asked the students do they know what an A-G requirement was. The ELD students said no. Angelina and I were surprise so we told them that it is the requirements to apply to a University of California school, typically if you fulfill these requirement you also fulfill most college/universities eligibility to apply, along with SAT/ACT scores, with some schools. We also told them the requirement of classes like four years English, Three years- Math, Two years-Science, Two year- foreign language, Two year-social science, One years- fine art, and 1 year elective. I guess some of the ELD student now understand what is the requirement and they now know what a seal of biliteracy is. In the presentation I think it was really interesting and fun, it was like we were teaching the ELD students things that they didn’t know before and it also helped the ELD student build their confidence in school. It also helped us with our campaign and felt like our campaign is really successful. Fighting AIWA.=)

大家好我是Cecilia,這次是我第一次為AIWA寫博客呢. 我是在Aiwa的ELD學生演講組的,意味著我們要複雜跟兩個ELD班房的學生做問卷調查和演講. 在四月十九日的時候我和我的拍檔Angelina Li在屋倫高中為ELD學生做了一個關於Aiwa的雙語認可計畫的演講. 在演講的時候ELD學生非常的留意我們的講話同時也問了我們好多問題. 我和Angelina派發了很多問卷調查給他們做,同時問他們知不知道什麼是A-G requirement. 有些學生不知道,我們都感到非常的驚訝.於是我們就告訴他們這個是上大學的一個重要要求,就好像很多學校都要SAT/ACT分數一樣. 我們告訴他們A-G Requirment就是意味著學生要在高中期間需要完成4年英文,3年數學,2年科學,2年外語和一年選修科目. 現在我想很多學生都知道什麼是A-G requirement和雙語認可計畫了. 我認為這次的演講蠻有趣的,因為好像我們在教大家一些新知識一樣同時也幫助ELD學生變在學校得更加有自信. 同時也幫助了我們的運動的進展, 我想我們的運動一定會很成功的!AIWA加油! =)
