All Teachers Are Teachers of ELLs PD Camp

June 1 through June 30, 2021

The HV RBERN is running a month-long virtual professional development camp to support educators as they continue to build capacity in meeting the needs of ELLs in their schools and classrooms.

Our camp features multiple workshops on ELL-related topics; participants will select workshops that best meet their needs. Successful completion of individual workshops will result in CTLE credits; credits per workshop will vary. Participants will have an opportunity to earn up to 20 CTLE credits.

Further information for accessing individual workshops will be provided to those who register for the camp via this MLP link.

As per the NYS Blueprint for ELL Success, all teachers are teachers of English Language Learners/Multilingual Learners and need to plan accordingly by:

  • Designing and delivering instruction that is culturally and linguistically appropriate for all diverse learners, including those with Individualized Education Programs (IEP).

  • Providing integrated language and content instruction to support language development through language-focused scaffolds. Bilingual, ENL, and other content-area teachers must collaborate purposefully and consistently to promote academic achievement in all content areas.

  • Utilizing materials and instructional resources that are linguistically age/grade appropriate and aligned to the Next Generation Learning Standards.

  • Collaborating with school support personnel and community-based human resources in order to address the multiple needs of ELLs/MLLs.

Participants MUST be enrolled by June 20, 2021.

All activities MUST be completed by June 30, 2021 in order to be awarded CTLE credit.

Cost: Free!
