Small Group Instruction for Multilingual Learners (ELs) (Canvas Course)   
**ONGOING REGISTRATION - Closes 4/15/2024** In order to support multilingual learner’s English development, we need to effectively plan and structure small group instruction to best meet their needs and foster language development. To do this, we need to know what our students are able to do and what their next steps in development are. In this course, participants will conduct an in-depth analysis of their students’ language capabilities and development and use this information to plan and structure effective, focused instruction. This course covers all topics needed to understand MLs/ELs language development, making it appropriate for new ML/EL educators or those with little knowledge about working with these students. It is also highly beneficial for more experienced ML/EL educators in that it provides a process and structure to delve deep into students’ language profiles and design effective, focused small group instruction. Coursework must be completed by 6/1/2024.

This training is comprised of two UPLIFT Trauma-Informed Care Practice Series modules. In this first module, Cultural Humility: Addressing and Unpacking Racial, Historical, and Gender Issues, participants explore the impacts of educational and social inequities on student achievement and provides participants with a baseline understanding of the need for cultural humility in educational settings.

Additionally, this topic is designed to support participants in being able to have meaningful conversations about educational inequity.The second module, Empowerment, Voice & Choice for All, allows participants to engage in meaningful exploration around the importance of creating equitable opportunities for empowerment, voice, and choice amongst staff, students, and the community. Participants will explore student and staff empowerment, and learn about the criticality of creating opportunities for everyone to be an active participant in conversations and decision-making. During each portion, participants will have time to identify strategies that may be feasible to implement in their buildings, and to discuss the barriers they may face and supports they may need along the way.
