Raising the Literacy Achievement of English Language Learners
Video and Facilitator's Guide

This video is available in either VHS or DVD format, please see ordering information to make your selection.

Use this new program to help mainstream teachers and other educators in your school raise the literacy achievement of English language learners in all grade levels. Showing the video, along with the workshop outlines and handouts from the Facilitator’s Guide, at your next teacher professional development meeting gives audiences a deeper understanding of the linguistic needs of English language learners and introduces them to classroom-proven strategies for teaching ELL students reading and writing skills.

• Take audiences to elementary, middle, and high schools to explain how educators--from New York City to San Antonio--meet the challenges of changing demographics in their schools
  
• Introduce your colleagues to the different student language proficiency levels teachers may face
  
• Showcase teaching strategies that help ELL students develop reading skills they need for subject-area learning
  
• Demonstrate how teachers in every subject improve ELL students’ writing skills

The accompanying Facilitator’s Guide has agendas for seven different workshops, plus all the handouts and overheads you need, and a selection of articles you can duplicate and distribute to workshop participants.
