Overview

This hands-on workshop is designed to help you as you continue to refine your program’s ESOL scope and sequence. You are asked to come with at least one colleague from your program and to bring copies of your program's "work-in-progress” along with any questions you might have.

Description

In this hands-on workshop, you will continue to develop your ESOL program's scope and sequence with guidance from SABES ESOL professional development providers. A presenter will first review the essential elements of an ESOL scope and sequence, including alignment to the MA ESOL Curriculum Framework and the College and Career Readiness Standards. Following the brief review, you will work in real-time on your program's scope and sequence using a template and other materials provided. ESOL PD facilitators will circulate among the participants and provide individualized guidance and support.
