How Does This Training Work?
DataWorks Professional Development experts will explain and demonstrate the strategies. The teachers then practice the strategies under the watchful eye of the trainer. Teachers come out knowing how to modify their lessons to reduce the linguistic demands of vocabulary and sentence structure for English Learners.
DataWorks will explain the different vocabulary types and their importance to English Learners (academic, content, and support words). Our experts will help teachers practice adapting content, incorporating contextual clues, and selecting appropriate supplementary materials.
Add English Learner Strategies Into Every Lesson
This workshop helps educators to incorporate English Language Development (ELD) strategies into lessons for all content areas, not just the ELD or ELA classroom.

6 Things to Know About English Learner Instruction
Educator Feedback About EDI®
Learn about the positive impact EDI® has for administrators, teachers, and students.
Our EL students are actively engaged in using language through the pair-shares. Their engagement with the curriculum is stronger and more meaningful because they are actually using academic language in a non-threatening environment prior to doing work independently.
Throughout the day, my English Learners are speaking in complete sentences and hearing complete sentences being spoken. By the middle of the year, I saw a huge improvement in their writing. I know this is a result of using sentence frames and having students answer questions in complete sentences.
