Join us for an interactive training focused on engaging, high impact vocabulary instruction for elementary students. Research shows that students from low socioeconomic backgrounds and emergent bilingual learners may experience significant vocabulary gaps, sometimes up to a million words, impacting comprehension and overall academic success. In this session, we will explore the why behind intentional vocabulary instruction and its critical role in closing these gaps. Then, roll up your sleeves for a hands on make and take experience where you will learn practical, research based strategies you can immediately implement in your classroom. Walk away equipped with tools that help all students build language, confidence, and deeper understanding.
