NEW! Biliteracy Curriculum Design for Dual Language

Struggling to decide what to teach, when, and in which language? You're not alone. Crafting a standards-based biliteracy curriculum map (AKA scope and sequence) is one of the most important—and most complex—tasks in dual language education.

In this interactive two-day institute, participants will explore how the Teaching for Biliteracy Recommendations can guide curriculum mapping decisions that support students in meeting the three pillars of dual language. We will examine real examples of standards-based biliteracy maps, discuss how to use published resources within your program’s framework, and share tools that can help your team assess and refine curriculum maps.

Whether you're just getting started or refining existing maps, you’ll leave with clear next steps and a powerful tool for building aligned and sustainable biliteracy instruction.

Target Audience:This session is ideal for teachers, school and district administrators, and program leadership teams. Teams with a decision-maker on board will find particular success, as many tools focus on systemic decision-making and implementation.

Participants will:

  • Analyze and evaluate examples of biliteracy curriculum maps
  • Learn how to apply the Teaching for Biliteracy Recommendations to your curriculum design
  • Explore how to integrate published resources within a standards-based biliteracy map
  • Evaluate and plan next steps for your own biliteracy curriculum map

Daily Schedule
