Supporting Language Learners to Meet the Demands of the CCSS ELA
The “Supporting Language Learners with Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts” module has four objectives: (1) situate the support of language learners within Wisconsin’s education initiatives; (2) review the different types of language learners; (3) gain familiarity with research on instructional needs of language learners; and (4) integrate research on language learners with standards-based instruction and assessment.
This is a nice introductory training on supporting English language learners. Each LiveBinder includes PowerPoint presentations, facilitation guides, and supplementary materials.
