Teachers will share, discuss, and implement differentiated language learning techniques used in their classroom for diverse learners. Specifically focused on EL strategies, teachers will apply their understanding of scaffolds and language acquisition to increase engagement across all language domains for every student.

This course is appropriate for all primary, intermediate and secondary education teachers. Teacher librarians, instructional coaches, and administrators are invited to join us; they will be asked to add their expertise and techniques in discussions and collaborative initiatives.

Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:

• Strategize differentiated techniques for language acquisition across the domains of listening, speaking, reading, and writing.
• Become knowledgeable around different EL strategies to use for diverse learners across multiple subject areas and content.  
• Apply personally adapted language acquisition skills to facilitate learning for students in the classroom setting
• Increase engagement for all students and other staff members through collaboration using technology, content integration, scaffolds, and differentiation.
