Are you ready to boost student engagement and enhance learning of abstract concepts? This course is specifically designed to support English learners as they acquire English as well as master content standards! Using a hands-on, kinesthetic approach such as Foldables® engages students at every level. As students conceptualize their learning, they deepen their thinking and increase retention of learning.

Get ready to witness increased excitement in learning, improved engagement with content, and better academic performance.
To best support our students, we must help them organize their thinking.
