Presented By: Dr. Michelle Yzquierdo from Seidlitz Education

      


Students in content-area classrooms are required to manage increasing amounts of academic vocabulary in order to be successful. This training offers effective strategies that can be used to build academic vocabulary skills for students in an authentic and engaging way. During the training, participants will learn how to teach core content vocabulary, how to help students navigate the academic language found in textbooks and on tests, and how to help students become independent learners of new vocabulary. This training is valuable for teachers, specialists, and administrators. Those who attend the training gain a deeper understanding of the types of academic vocabulary students need to use. In addition, real life practice strategies enable participants to implement what they've learned when they return to their classroom.
