This course develops competencies needed by all teachers who work with English language learners. Through field placements and seminar sessions, students practice evidence-based techniques for teaching second ESL learners within Pre-K-12 classrooms. Participants will develop strategies for engaging learners, scaffolding instruction, and assessing learning outcomes. Particular emphasis is given to the SIOP (Sheltered Instruction Observation Protocols) Model, a comprehensive instructional approach for planning and implementing lessons.
