ELPS Academy: English Language Arts

Explore ways to increase achievement for English language learners using the English Language Proficiency Standards (ELPS). The ELPS require specific focus on developing academic language in the content areas through reading, writing, speaking, and listening in grades K-12. In this session, participants will examine the ELPS use them to practice writing language objectives using the four domains.  The resources contain specific strategies that will enable teachers to incorporate the ELPS in their classrooms.

The registration fee for this training has been waived due to TEA funding through the TEKS PD grant.

Registration will begin at 8:30 am and the sessions will begin promptly at 9:00 am each day (Unless noted otherwise). Due to requirements from TEA, attendance at these workshops is strictly monitored. You must be present the entire session, from 9:00 am – 4:00 pm, all days required, in order to receive full credit. If you cannot attend the full session, we suggest registering for another session at a time when you will be able to attend the entire workshop.

Stipends are no longer available for TEKS PD sessions.
