RTI and ELL Students: What you need to know
Posted by Beth DuBose on Jan 19, 2010
Recorded webinar presented by Casey Gordon, an ELL Coordinator at Kent ISD. The webinar focuses on how teachers can ensure that RTI is a positive program for ELL students.
Throughout th webinar, viewers will learn who is and ELL and what Response to Intervention is. Then the presentation looks at what a successful RTI program for ELL students would look like. Challenges are looked at when using RTI with ELL and students, but the presenter also provides guidance on what instruction would look like with an ELL student at the different tiers of RTI.
The webinar is free, but you will need to enter your name when accessing the webinar.
This reminded me of a webinar sponsored by Reading Horizons about ESL strategies in teaching reading, it can be found at:
