Developing a language lens means cultivating a cultural and linguistic responsiveness that improves the learning experience and achievement of every language learner - whether they are English Language Learners, Academic Language Learners, or both. ANY STUDENT CAN BE A LANGUAGE LEARNER, so this PD is for EVERY K-12 INSTRUCTOR who is looking to be more effective, inclusive, and responsive in their teaching. Every participant will receive a FREE COPY of The Language Lens for Content Classrooms by Sarah B. Ottow. We will be using information from the book throughout the session. District or campus teams are encouraged to attend together.
