Linguistically Diverse Learners and Advanced Literacy Instruction: Elevating the Instructional Core for All Students - Asynchronous Workshop via Choice Board


What are Advanced Literacies, and how do they relate to ELL/MLL learner success? In this workshop, participants will dive into the Advanced Literacy Briefs on Linguistically Diverse Learners in relation to the New York State Next Generation Learning Standards, provided to NYS by Nonie K. Lesaux, PhD & Emily Phillips Galloway, Ed.D.

This is a self-paced workshop that consists of four separate workshop activities displayed on a Choice Board; participants are welcome to complete all four actvities, or just the ones they are most interested in, to earn 2 CTLE Credits for each workshop activity and up to 8 CTLE credits for completing the entire Choice Board. CTLE certificates are automatically emailed upon completion (no registration is required).
