Centralizing the Needs of English Learners: ELD for Elementary Teachers and Administrators Institute
Equitable access to a comprehensive education including both integrated and designated English language development (ELD) instruction is a civil right for English learners. These six sessions, with embedded pre-work, will support teachers in designing responsive designated ELD lessons that build upon students’ knowledge across the disciplines.
Teachers will expand their understanding of backward planning to identify English learners’ strengths and needs to provide targeted language instruction. Through this work, teachers will develop the tools needed to create the academic conditions students need to flourish.
