Getting Started with English Language Learners

 Is your district experiencing an increase of English Language Learners (ELLs)?
Are you wondering how to meet the academic, social, and emotional needs of your ELLs?

During this workshop we will discuss basic legal requirements, how students acquire language, and how to address cultural issues. In the
afternoon, you will split into two groups, elementary staff and middle/high school staff, to learn about specific strategies for educating English learners at your grade level. All participants will receive the new Getting Started with ELLs handbook.
