WEBINARS

Build Your English Learners’ Reading Comprehension Across-the-Curriculum

This webinar will support your work with students at all literacy levels, from students who are just learning how to read in English to those with more advanced literacy skills. Learn how to support ELLs in learning core subject matter in science, technology and math and in meeting the challenges of the Common Core State Standards. Find out how to support your EL students in high-level literacy skills such as the multiple interpretations of a text, comparing texts, analyzing the effectiveness of a structure or argument, providing claims, developing solutions and/or summarizing an experiment and results.

Provide Differentiated Instruction to ELL

Educators who are familiar with strategies for differentiating instruction for ELLs will be better able to collaborate with English as Second Language (ESL) teachers. ESL and gen-ed teachers often lack a shared language and shared pedagogy to guide their collaboration. Webinar handouts and activities will provide participants with tools, strategies and ways of thinking about content instruction that create an effective bridge between ESL and gen-ed teaching, increasing success for both teacher and student.
