Teaching Reading to Adult English Language Learners
This is a 7-hour workshop that is currently been offered around the state in various locations (listed below). It is the first of 3 that will be offered around the state over approximately one year's time. The other two are: Teaching Writing and Teaching Speaking and Listening to Adult English Language Learners. Each of the training sessions has been designed to help ESOL teachers develop their lesson plans based on current research in the language skills and in second language acquisition. These workshops, originally created for the CAELA Guide for Adult ESL Trainers, have been adjusted to include activities that help practitioners implement the Virginia Content Standards in their instruction.
In order to register for one of these workshops, please contact Marianne Baker at 800-237-0178 or register online. (All workshops are from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.)
