This 3-day comprehensive professional development is for educators teaching in a Spanish bilingual education program, through a Dual Language model, or for those teaching in a Spanish Immersion classroom. Attendees will participate in a re-"boot camp" of Spanish Skills and Grammar course as an overview as part of Day 1.
On Days 2 and 3, participants will continue to engage in activities that generate interest and understanding of the essential knowledge and skills for each core-content area, emphasize the academic vernacular of the Spanish language in each content, and integrate language literacy skills through hand-on activities and field experiences.
Technology will be incorporated and participants will receive quick tutorials on how to use it effectively and to promote interaction. Participants are encouraged to bring their laptops to create and share activities for their classrooms.
Session will be conducted primarily in Spanish.
