This training is designed to assist mathematics educators in meeting the needs of English Language Learners through the implementation of research-based instructional strategies in specific mathematics contexts.
This training will also include an examination of the special needs of this population in the mathematics classroom, as well as strategies for the development of language specific to mathematics, for planning lessons and for the delivery of rigorous and relevant instruction. Participants will also look at the English Language Proficiency Standards and how they relate to their current classrooms.
