| Constructing Meaning Handbook |
|
To assist districts in supporting secondary, long-term English Learners (Intermediate, Early Advanced and Advanced English language proficiency levels), we have developed a Secondary Constructing Meaning: Explicit Language for Content Instruction. The Secondary CM Handbook offers 6 - 12 content teachers the process and tools to identify specific, content-driven language objectives and design instruction to address those objectives. Content specific modules for English/Language Arts, Science and History/Social Studies are added to Handbooks, as appropriate, to provide targeted resources.
Tab 1 of the Secondary CM Handbook provides the Rationale for Constructing Meaning. And you can download the CM Institute Overview with Institute Outcomes and Structure.
To assist districts in supporting elementary English Learners, we have developed Elementary Constructing Meaning: Explicit Language for Literacy Instruction. The Elementary CM Handbook offers K-6 teachers the process and tools to identify specific, content-driven language objectives and design instruction to address those objectives.
These Handbooks are only available through a three-day Constructing Meaning Institute provided by a Certified Presenter.
