Description

N.D. School districts have an increasing number of linguistically diverse students which creates a need for additional EL support in schools. N.D. teachers are frequently responsible for developing the EL program in their schools, often with very little training. There is also a need for mainstream teachers and administrators to increase their expertise in developing instruction and programming for ELS. ND EL Boot Camp addresses multiple topics that are relevant to the outside-of-the-classroom duties for which schools are responsible.

Cost is $70 for the course and can be reimbursed using Title III funds. 

15 Topics related to the education of ELs in N.D. 

• Learn about the EL program
• Ask questions to develop local program and knowledge base
• Receive sample documents to help update current program paperwork 

Participants asked to bring EL related documents/reports to the workshop in paper or electronic form including: the EL program handbook, a copy of the ILP form, parent notification letter and the 2 year monitoring form, a copy of the district’s MIS01 Fall Report, at least two students who have ACCESS scores from 2017-18 and 2018-19 and the same two students’ MAP or STAR percentile rank.
