EPiCC Summer Series: Strategies for Elementary Integrated and Designated ELD
How can teachers easily and effectively build language proficiency for their English learner/emergent bilingual students throughout their daily lessons?
This interactive three-day in-person event provides teachers with a construct and set of strategies that can be effectively integrated into existing lessons and practices. Aligned to Principle 1 and Principle 2 of the English Learner Roadmap and the English Learner Toolkit of Strategies, participants will:
-
Learn to effectively identify and address the strengths and needs of English learner/emergent bilingual students by providing targeted scaffolds and instructional support.
-
Develop strategies to actively engage students in all four language domains (listening, reading, speaking and writing), deepening students’ use of sophisticated academic language and tapping into their linguistic genius.
-
Be prepared with tools and resources to implement in their classrooms.
Course Dates and Time:
June 29 - July 1, 2026
8:30 AM - 3:00 PM
Audience: Elementary Classroom Teachers, Instructional Coaches, TOSAs, EL Leader
Your confirmation to attend will be required.
Note: This event is geared toward elementary educators; however, the concepts could be valuable to secondary teachers and coaches seeking a deeper understanding of ELD. A light breakfast and lunch will be offered for each day of the series. Although the professional learning is free of cost, there is a $60 fee to cover the cost of materials. This event is a repeat of the professional learning from EPiCC Summer 2024 and 2025.
Sponsored by the Educator Workforce Investment Grant through the California Department of Education and the California Collaborative for Excellence in Education.
