Creating Conditions for Secondary Multilingual Learners to Thrive
Multilingual learners can learn grade-level content if the instruction is intentionally scaffolded with language in mind. Highly successful content teachers have been using sheltered instruction as a framework for scaffolding learning for MLs for decades now. If you believe that MLs are capable of academic success, then this course will add proven strategies to back your commitment.
