Please join us at an upcoming three-day Direct Strategies Institute using CAL’s widely-used What’s Different? professional development program. The training will provide participants with an understanding of the methodology and strategies for teaching English language learners (ELLs) how to read. This research-based curriculum incorporates key findings from the National Literacy Panel (2006).
The three-day What’s Different? Direct Strategies Institute is designed for elementary and middle school classroom, ESL, reading and Title I teachers as well as school administrators who want to ensure reading progress on the part of ELLs. CAL encourages teams of ESL, reading, and classroom teachers.
