You learn why and when sheltered instruction should be offered and acquire a variety of techniques that can be used in a classroom. Once the basic theoretical framework is established, teachers join content groups in science, social studies, or math to focus on effective sheltering strategies for teaching reading and writing in a content class. Participants also learn the use of graphic organizers and methods of personalizing the curriculum so it has a multicultural perspective. Readings and videotapes augment presentations. This course is designed for practicing teachers, grades K-12, and those who are nearing completion of their certificate program.
Enrollment is limited.
