WORKSHOP OVERVIEW
How can we encourage students to participate in the rich, complex life of the classroom, sharing their wonderings, their thoughts, and their experiences, if they have not yet developed the language skills needed to do so? How can we foster their curiosity and support them as agents of their own learning while helping them develop their unique voices and identities? This full-day workshop addresses that challenge directly. Educators will learn how to plan for and implement extended discourse practices to accelerate language skills development, draw out students' curiosity, promote exploration and inquiry, and support identity formation by allowing student voices to be heard.
