Educators are navigating unprecedented challenges, and the ENL team has heard from many of you who have questions about English learners and remote learning. We have enjoyed hearing from you during this time of transition to eLearning, and we are wrapping up our blog series with a focus on summer.

We’ve addressed many topics in past posts, including navigating communication, delivering clear directions, inserting language supports, providing speaking opportunities, supporting older siblings, encouraging the use of home languages, and tackling the challenge of math during eLearning. Our final post is about avoiding the summer slide.

Los educadores están navegando por desafíos sin precedentes, y el equipo de ENL ha escuchado de muchos de ustedes que tienen preguntas sobre los estudiantes de inglés y el aprendizaje remoto. Estamos respondiendo a estas preocupaciones cada semana con estrategias y sugerencias.
