We Are All Language Teachers: How to Infuse Structured Literacy Across Languages
Presented by: Dr. Elsa Cárdenas-Hagan,
President, Valley Speech Language and Learning Center
Does Structured Literacy work with Multilingual Learners? Yes! In fact, Structured Literacy doesn’t just support reading development in English, it also boosts reading skills in other languages in valuable ways that we often overlook. With effective instruction based on Structured Literacy, multilingual learners can simultaneously develop strong reading and writing abilities in two languages, while fully embracing and retaining their heritage languages. In this edWebinar with Dr. Elsa Cárdenas-Hagan, you discover how.
Dr. Cárdenas-Hagan, a leading expert in multilingual speech-language pathology and literacy, uniquely merges her extensive research with real-world experiences. This blend not only highlights her depth of knowledge and dedication but also illustrates her active role in promoting linguistic diversity in education. For Dr. Cárdenas-Hagan, each language is a bridge that enhances learning and enriches personal development.
This session is the kick-off to CORE Learning’s three-part “Structured Literacy and Language Diversity Lunch and Learn Week,” aimed at celebrating language diversity and empowering educators in language-diverse classrooms. Join us to learn practical strategies that you can apply right away in your classrooms to help every student achieve their full potential in reading.
