Through collaborative work, discussions, and hands-on activities we will explore how to build students’ conceptual math and science understanding and academic language by leveraging the Math and Next Generation Science practices, and ELD Standards. We will explore a multitude of resources to support this instruction. We will leave with an understanding of how to adapt math or science lessons and/or units to engage English Learners deeply in the content while developing academic language purposefully and intentionally.
I have been in bilingual education serving English Learners for 25 years. It is my honor and privilege to support students, parents, teachers, and school administrators in my role as Instructional Service Specialist for Riverside Unified School District.
