Implementing Professional Learning Communities for the WWC Practice Guide, Teaching Academic Content and Literacy to English Learners in Elementary and Middle Schools

The project’s medium-term goals include:
• Regional English learner coaches and demonstration site district representatives will implement the Teaching Academic Content and Literacy to English Learners in Elementary and Middle School practice guide with fidelity.
• Teachers at implementation sites will adopt and use evidence-based practices with fidelity.
 
By increasing teacher use of evidence-based instructional practices for teaching academic content and literacy to English learner students, the project will result in improved instruction and increased English learner student proficiency on state assessments.
