Strategies for Classroom Teachers
The ELL student faces many challenges in the regular classroom
and the sensitive teacher can make a big difference. There
are strategies to be used that can make the curriculum comprehensible
for the ELL student. This workshop will explore many approaches
and ideas to be utilized by any grade school or content area
teacher. We will also discuss some “sheltered English”
methods.
Understanding
ESOL LanguageDevelopment Levels
There are many variables that can classify the ELL students
coming into your class. Therefore, understanding the different
levels of English language development is crucial. This workshop
will introduce participants to the attributes that can be
expected at the different levels in an easy-to-use format.
Participants will also learn about the important difference
between “basic” language and “academic”
language.
LAS
Links Training
LAS (Language Assessment Scales) Links is an integrated system
of reliable, research-based assessments and instructional
guidance for all English language learners. This workshop
will provide the training necessary for administering and
scoring all levels of the new test required by the Connecticut
State Department of Education. All the components of the tests
will be discussed and participants will practice scoring.
Strategies
& Lesson Ideas for ELL Paraprofessionals & Tutors
In working with English Language Learners, a support person
should have a basic understanding of the different stages
of language acquisition and have many instructional ideas
available. If the student is new to this country, there are
strategies available for support staff to make the most efficient
use of the precious support time available. This workshop
will provide the background information, along with many strategies,
lesson ideas and learning games for paraprofessionals and
tutors to use with students.
