High Impact Language Development Practices: Breaking Down Language Barriers for English Learners
Thursday, May 25, 3:00 – 4:00p.m. ET
Students don’t come to school fluent in academic discourse. Academic language requires a special vocabulary and the use of more formal and sophisticated grammar.
This one-hour webinar will provide you with actionable strategies to make the demands of academic language more accessible to every student in the classroom, particularly English Learners, and raise student achievement.
Jill Youngren, an educator and Senior Educational Consultant with CORE, will share:
- Specific challenges EL students face when simultaneously trying to develop English language skills and learn subject-matter content.
- How to intentionally use everyday instructional practices in order to support English Language Development.
- How to use visual, graphic, and class discussion supports, that are evidence-based practices for English Language Development instruction.
If you’re not able to attend the live event, go ahead and register. We will send you a recording of the webinar to watch at your convenience.
