SUMMARY:Teaching Reading to Students Learning English: Direct Strategies
DESCRIPTION:Learn effective strategies and activities to develop English learners’ literacy skills as they develop greater language proficiency. \nPlease join us at this three-day virtual Direct Strategies Institute based on CAL’s widely used What’s Different About Teaching Reading to Students Learning English? professional development program. The training will provide participants with an understanding of the methodology and strategies for teaching English learners how to decode and gain meaning from reading as they strengthen their language skills in English. \nThis research-based curriculum incorporates key findings from the National Literacy Panel (2006) on teaching reading comprehension\, vocabulary\, fluency\, phonemic awareness and phonics to English learners with key research-based updates. Connections will be made to college and career readiness standards (such as CCSS) including reading and writing in the content areas. \nThe engaging three-day institute is designed for classroom\, ESL\, and literacy teachers as well as school administrators who want to ensure reading progress on the part of English learners. High school teachers working with newcomers or students acquiring early literacy skills will also benefit. CAL encourages teams of ESL\, reading\, and classroom teachers to attend. Facilitators will model classroom and online learning strategies that can be used directly with students to improve literacy outcomes for language learners. \nTo find out how we can customize this workshop for your school or district\, including online options\, please contact solutions@cal.org. \nWhat you will receive: \n\nThe What’s Different?
