What does effective instruction for English learners (ELs) look and sound like in today’s classrooms? This session will focus on research-based instructional best practices that support language development and academic achievement for ELs across content areas. Participants will strengthen their ability to recognize these practices during classroom observations and walkthroughs, while also exploring how WIDA ACCESS scores and other student data can inform instructional decisions. Participants will receive practical tools to support teacher feedback, guide instructional improvement, and strengthen outcomes for English learners.
