Supporting Newcomer English Learners
Tuesday, October 20 - custapp.marketvolt.com/link/TZ7usMbZlg?CM=1533755863&X=76100684
Friday, December 4 - custapp.marketvolt.com/link/zpyZrbGQgG?CM=1533755863&X=76100684
In this workshop, “newcomer ELs” will be defined as students attending U.S. schools for the first time. Even schools with quality EL programs can often feel unprepared when a newly immigrated student with low English language proficiency shows up. Newcomer ELs require an exceptional level of support, nurturing and advocacy. This workshop draws from Pathways to Greatness for ELL Newcomers by Michelle Yzquierdo and the U.S. Department of Education’s Newcomer Toolkit.
