Putting SDAIE Theory into Practice (2-12)/Flex Course

 

This course will provide elementary and secondary teachers with a variety of SDAIE (Specially Designed Academic Instruction in English) strategies that can be used across content areas and grade levels. These SDAIE practices are the "scaffolds" that enable English language learners to access grade-level curriculum while simultaneously developing academic language.

"The content and resources from this course were current, relevant, and fun! There were many wonderful ideas for implementation in the SDAIE classroom or any classroom!" - Joyce Bourdon
