This study will focus solely on Fields Elementary in McAllen, Texas. The findings of this study can be of assistance to help other ELL students, as well as better, understand their learning process and the impact that technology has on the development of Math vocabulary. In the US, across all classrooms, the amount of English language learners (ELLs) is growing at a fast pace. For the past two decades, this specific populace has grown 169% in the US, making ELLs the firmest rising subgroup in our US schools (Allison & Rehm, 2011). This group is rising so fast that it is foreseen by 2030. Half of all students will be ELL (Capps, et al, 2005). When the ELL students have become a massive representation of the classroom at Fields Elementary, it is important that teachers understand their specific needs and create strategies that are successful tools in helping them study English and be academically successful.ELLs take at least one to two years to speak basic
