Closing the Achievement Gap: How to Reach Limited-Formal-Schooling and Long-Term English Learners

Adolescent English learners pose a real challenge for educators. Some of these students come to our educational system lacking a strong academic background that could help them support their second language acquisition and/or academic development. Some others have been part of our own educational system for a long time. This session will give teachers and administrators four research-based keys for closing the achievement gap in these students. All participants will receive a copy of the book entitled “Closing the Achievement Gap” by David and Yvonne Freeman, as well as “Double the Work” by Deborah Short and Shannon Fitzsimmons.
