During the 2023-2024 school year, the Secondary ESL Instructional Team will focus on supporting teachers in implementing the "7 Steps to a Language-Rich Classroom." These steps from from the book with the same title from Seidlitz Education.
Throughout the year, we will present ideas and strategies from this book during our monthly professional learning sessions. In addition, we presented these steps during the Elevate conference in August. Feel free to review the Prezi below from our session in August.
