Mid-State RBERN and SupportEd are pleased to offer a unique online professional learning experience to delve into the specific strengths and challenges of students with limited or interrupted formal education (SLIFE) in this six-week guided online course. Over the three self-paced components, you will delve more deeply into SLIFE topics including supporting and engaging SLIFE and their families; developing of materials, activities, and programs; and effectively instructing SLIFE.

Course will take place January 21 to March 6, 2010

Mid-State RBERN and SupportEd are pleased to offer a unique online professional learning experience based on Diane Staehr Fenner and Sydney Snyder's best selling book Unlocking English Learners' Potential: Strategies for Making Content Accessible where participants will explore research-based practices for supporting ELs as they acquire both language and content knowledge. Understanding and using academic language is at the heart of ELs' language development and mastery of grade-level content. But when tackling a new text or grade-level content topic with your students, it can be challenging to figure out what vocabulary to focus on and how to help ELs make meaning of complex sentences and distinct discourse structures. This course, designed for both ESOL and content teachers, will help!

Over the three course components, you will have an opportunity to learn about and apply proven strategies to:

• Select and teach academic vocabulary to ELs in varied ways
• Support ELs in developing academic language at the sentence level
• Foster ELs' ability to comprehend academic text, understand distinct text structures, and produce academic language at the discourse level

Course facilitators from the SupportEd team will collaborate with participants in an online, interactive self-paced course on building ELs' academic language at the word, sentence, and discourse level.

Each participant will receive a copy of Diane Staehr Fenner and Sydney Snyder's best selling book Unlocking English Learners' Potential: Strategies for Making Content Accessible which participants will be required to pick up at OCM BOCES prior to the start of the online course.

How can we be as effective as possible in planning for language learning? The World-Readiness Standards answer the "what"� of language learning, balancing the development of Communication with the meaningful exploration of Cultures, Connections, Comparisons, and Communities. What really counts to move along the proficiency continuum? Unpack the major levels of proficiency by closely examining the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements organized by the three Modes of Communication and Intercultural Communication to fill in the "how well"� to guide learners forward. Use the lens of Standards and Can-Do Statements to analyze key shifts for learners and educators.

This group is for people who have been designated by their district to take a leadership role in math. It is recommended that districts send a team to the Math Leadership meetings that includes teacher leaders (elementary, middle and high school teachers) as well as building and district leaders. This group serves to support the development of district and regional capacity related to the Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards. This includes sharing and discussing up-to-date information related to the changes in the standards and other relevant information from the State Education Department. Additionally, the goal of this group is to develop collaboration between districts in the region to support high-quality K-12 mathematics education and to support continuous improvement in mathematics learning and instruction. The expectation for participating in this group is:

1. Attending all three meetings during the year. We will have a focus of study for the year that will build on our previous work.

2. Being prepared for the meeting by completing any personal learning required by the facilitator of this group.

3. Being responsible for working with your team to bring the learning from the meeting back to your district.

4. Being designated or gaining approval by your district to participate in this group.

The formal meeting will occur in the morning. However, your district may ask your team to use the afternoon to develop a plan for implementing the learning from the meeting in your district. If your district asks this of you the meeting space will be available in the afternoon for use by those who wish to stay and work.
