In collaboration with Claudia Paras, Community Outreach Coordinator at Seattle's new Office of Labor Standards, and a longtime ESOL educator herself, I created a curriculum framework and several lessons for ESL Level 2 or higher learners. The overarching goal of our curriculum is to empower immigrant workers through acquisition of functional language skills and to identify, address and solve problems or violations of their rights on the job. A secondary goal is to is to support learners to produce or generate authentic language that mirrors the workplace and life situations they find themselves in. And the final goal is to create an environment where learners can forge relationships across national, ethnic and language lines that lead to more cohesion and power for immigrant workers. The backdrop to our lessons is the fact that while Seattle has passed a host of new labor laws since 2013, new studies show that immigrant workers are the least likely to know about, or be able to access them.
