AFESC--ESOL Boot Camp Days 1-3



This training is best described as a three-session boot camp for teachers, instructional support staff and leadership who wish to develop or build on their ESOL knowledge base and improve their instructional practices to better meet the needs of English Learners.  It was developed in response to districts concerned about supporting and developing effective instructional practices with teachers facing challenges when instructing English Learners in content areas.  The overall aim of the comprehensive three-day training is to build capacity in teachers to provide meaningful access and learning experiences for all learners and the instructional leaders supporting those teachers.   While the training was designed with improving outcomes for English Learners in mind, a significant portion of the content taught and techniques demonstrated will benefit all students in our classrooms.
Participants will learn about:
•        Designing lessons to be more comprehensible for English Learners despite the language barrier
•        Methods for delivering content that help students access and participate in the learning
•        Connecting ELPA data, the ELP Standards, and Achievement Level Descriptors to inform decisions about grouping, learning targets and design differentiation.
•        Anticipating linguistic demands to plan effective scaffolding and support
The facilitator will demonstrate/model these methods & techniques throughout the sessions, while participants engage in activities aligned to high yield practices when instructing ELs, discuss and reflect on how they could use them in their own classrooms, and practice incorporating them in their lessons.
