Description

In this course, you will explore the unique literacy needs of students who are newcomers. These students are sometimes referred to as Recently Arrived English Learners (RAEL), and can include students with highly developed, age-appropriate literacy in their home language(s), as well as students with limited or interrupted formal education (SLIFE). Each student has a unique profile of experiences, both in and out of school. These experiences provide the foundation on which we can build literacy experiences in English. This course will introduce you to scenarios and tools to address the unique strengths and needs of students who are new to the U.S. school system.
