This 3-day workshop has been designed to provide art educators with research-proven practices and tools for working with English language learners. During the workshop effective research-based strategies and practices for working with ELs as they pertain to art instruction will be modeled. Participants will have opportunities to practice the modeled strategies, to analyze their practice, to provide and receive feedback, and to reflect on their experiences. Through this cycle of reflective practice, participants will strengthen their skills and knowledge as well as gain confidence and familiarity with research-proven practices for working with ELs.
Activities and tasks are designed to reinforce key concepts and practices, which utilize tools presented for the purpose of developing a body of sheltered English lessons to be shared among participants. Participants will work collaboratively in grade-level groups/ clusters on these.
