Language Aquisition in the Linguistically Diverse Classroom

9/23/2023

This week I had the pleasure of conducting 2 workshops with the Department of Education and teachers from Providenciales, Middle Caicos, Grand Turk, South Caicos and North Caicos to explore Language Acquisition in the Linguistically Diverse Classroom.

Itâ€™s not uncommon to find students who are coming to school with very little knowledge of the English language. Itâ€™s important that teachers are equipped with the mindset and strategies to help their students thrive.

In our sessions, we explored:
âœ”ï¸Creating Safe, Inclusive and Supportive Environments
âœ”ï¸Understanding Diversity, Equity and Inclusion in Education
âœ”ï¸Oral Language and Vocabulary Development in the Early Years
âœ”ï¸Teaching English Language Learners
âœ”ï¸Stages of Second Language Acquisition
âœ”ï¸Approaches to English Language Learning
