A Message From Your Seminar Leader

Dear Colleague:

As K-2 educators, we certainly understand the challenges of teaching math to ELL students in our classrooms. It's tough to see these students struggle to grasp math concepts and make progress in their language skills. We've tried various strategies, but it often feels like we're missing that special connection between their native language abilities and their academic performance in English. We know deep down that academic vocabulary knowledge and skills hold the key to their success, but we need a better way to help them get there.

That's why I'm thrilled to invite you to a unique one-day seminar designed specifically for K-2 teachers who teach math to English language learners. This seminar is all about practical strategies that you can immediately use in your classroom. We'll explore ways to help your ELL students better understand the content and concepts you're teaching. By incorporating learning techniques that are proven to help ELL students understand math, you'll see improvements in their math skills and academic success. The best part is that these strategies have been tested in K-2 classrooms and have proven to be effective. My hope is that this one-day seminar will give you tools and resources you can use immediately to better support your ELL students and help them reach their full potential in math. It's also a fantastic opportunity to connect with other teachers who share the same passion for teaching young English learners.

So, please join me for this knowledge-packed day where we'll dive into powerful strategies that will make a real difference for your EL students in math. I can't wait to meet you at the seminar and embark on this exciting journey together!

Sincerely,
Christi Gilbert
