Oral interactions promote the development of conceptual understandings and language proficiency. Ensuring young English Learners have multiple opportunities to practice language and discuss grade-level content is essential. In this webinar, teachers will learn techniques for effective questioning in grades K-2 that can be used to design activities for distance learning environments that promote text-based discussions.
The following topics will be addressed in this session:
• Introduction to oral language development and its importance for English Learners
• Strategically designing questions to support language development using grade-level texts
• Increasing opportunities for student talk in distance learning environments
