About this Event:

Sharing students and planning for biliteracy when one teacher teaches one language, and the other teacher teaches another language can be highly successful and effective. This one-day online session provides considerations, tools, and examples of how teachers can best plan for instruction, communicate with parents, co-create structures and collaborate while sharing students.

Join us for this one-day, dynamic online learning experience designed for K-5 educators working in:

  • Transitional bilingual programs
  • Dual language programs
  • One-way and two-way immersion programs
  • Two-teacher models

This institute includes synchronous (live) sessions via Zoom and access to optional asynchronous (pre-recorded) webinars, which will be shared during the live sessions to support and deepen your learning experience.


As a result of this session, participants will be able to:

  • Identify and describe strategies for looking at students across both of their languages
  • Explore structures that lead to successful collaboration within a two-teacher model
  • Create tools to use together as teachers plan for instruction and assessment of students, communication with parents, and collaboration in general

Schedule

· Live session: 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Central Time (each day)

The interactive session will feature presentations, activities, and small group discussions

It is best if each participant joins from their own device to fully participate in breakout rooms and interactive elements. If this is not possible, please let us know so that we can prepare appropriately.

Please note: The live session will not be recorded
