May Updates

The funniest thing happened. We mailed off our Project GLAD giveaway book quite a bit of time ago, and the book was actually returned to us for some reason. It just ended up in our mailbox, interestingly enough and it doesn't even look like it has been mailed. We will be sending it out again this coming Tuesday.

We haven't been posting much here lately because we have been very busy with Project GLAD trainings and English Learner Professional Development Trainings (ELPD). We actually submitted a training curriculum to be approved by the state, and it was accepted. We're very happy about this.

Many people have been contacting us and asking us if we are Project GLAD key trainers. We most definitely are! We are located in Southern California, but have no problems with traveling to other locations. We work extensively with teachers in all academic programs, and we have a specific expertise in the area of bilingual education/dual language/Dual Immersion programs. We can also provide training on how Project GLAD can be used to meet the needs of second language learners who are in dual language contexts (i.e., English-only students learning Spanish, for example). If you would like more information or have any questions, please feel free to contact us at eldstrategies(at)yahoo(dot)com.

Stay tuned for some upcoming posts because we will begin to update the blog this weekend. We'll try to keep more regular with the posting. Have a nice holiday weeekend!!
