Understand the link between language and literacy
During the Whole to Part course, you will plan lessons that leave students reading and writing beyond their assessed reading levels and excited about literacy.
You'll be amazed as your English learners begin building literacy skills faster than before, as you help them connect language development with literacy skills in an engaging way.
What you need is a simple plan, a step by step toolkit you can use to address the needs of your English learners without creating hours of extra work.
Whole to Part is your toolkit
"...Whole to Part instruction builds literacy skills faster than using isolated language pieces found in de-contextualized drills because the context is relevant, significant, and engaging. My students have bloomed using this approach..." ESL teacher
