How to Support Multilingual Learners Across Program Models and Instructional Contexts
"If there has ever been a time to learn and read about teacher collaboration, it is now. A collaborative school and classroom community is a place where standards are high and fear is low. A collaborative school and classroom culture is where educators, students, and leaders seek excellence in themselves and support others to achieve their goals. This FREE one-hour webinar is based upon Andrea Honigsfeld and Maria G. Dove's latest edited volume published by Seidlitz Education, Portraits of Collaboration, which showcases several unique, yet easily transferable collaborative practices in support of multilingual learners." -Saddleback Educational Publishing
Andrea Honigsfeld and Maria G. Dove along with the contributing authors share about Portraits of Collaboration: Educators Working Together to Support Multilingual Learners.
How can we support or encourage reluctant colleagues to increase collaboration in order to support MLLs? How can we help educators unlearn the often negative perceptions of dreaded observations by administrators and fellow teachers so they can collaborate more effectively? Do schools that have effective collaborative practices in place retain more teachers?
Dr. Andrea Honigsfeld and Valentina Gonzalez discuss these questions and much more with Steve Sofronas.
Dr. Andrea Honigsfeld and Dr. Maria Dove, the co-editors of “Portraits of Collaboration: Educators Working Together to Support Multilingual Learners,” explore questions around teacher collaboration for planning, teaching, and assessing learner success. Instructional coaches and school leaders can apply their knowledge and experience to support EAL teaching teams and coaching in all areas.
