The Wested Organization will be having a live webinar about making mathematics accessible and comprehensible to English learners on December 2, 2009 between 10:30-12:00 PST. The webinar is applicable for teachers in the upper elementary grades through high school, although I am sure that teachers in the primary grades would also benefit from the discussion. The two presenters will be Cathy Caroll and John Carr. I don't know much about Cathy Carroll, but I do know that John Carr was one of the creators of the Wested Map of ELD Standards, which helped with an alignment of the English language arts and English language development standards in California.Interested participants can join the webinar online or via teleconference. The webinar will discuss how to use multiple ELD and SDAIE strategies in order to differentiate for students who are various levels of English proficiency levels in the mathematics classroom.
Even if you don't have any English learners in your classroom, you might find this webinar useful! It is not often that we have an opportunity to learn about strategies and differentiation for teaching mathematics instruction.
The information in the webinar will be based on Wested's book "Making Mathematics Accessible to English Learners: A Guidebook for Teachers". You can purchase the book in the ELD Strategies bookstore by clicking here.
If you would like to attend the webinar, please visit Wested's informational page. If you are unable to attend the webinar, we will post at a later time if Wested uploads a copy of the webinar to their website archives.
