SUMMARY: Putting the Illinois SLA Standards into Action: Lesson Planning for TBE Programs
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n  \n\nDate: Wednesday\, November 18\, 2026\nPresenter: Rachell Plote\nECPD Credit Hours: 2 hours\n\nEvent ID: 275503077\n\n\n\n\n\n Putting the Illinois SLA Standards into Action: Lesson Planning for TBE Programs \n How do we utilize the Illinois Spanish Language Arts standards in daily classroom instruction? This follow-up session provides TBE educators with concrete strategies to plan\, align\, and implement standards-based Spanish language arts instruction.In this session\, we will: \n\nAddress how to align the SLA standards to traditional TBE program models.\nApply SLA standards and essential understandings to weekly and daily lesson planning.\nLeverage vertical articulation insights to differentiate instruction for diverse Spanish proficiency levels within TBE classrooms.\n\nTarget Audience: TBE educators grades 3-12

SUMMARY:Leveraging Language in Math: Scaffolds\, Visuals\, and Translanguaging
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n  \n\nDate: Thursday\, November 19\, 2026\nPresenter: Rachell Plote\nECPD Credit Hours: 2 hours\n\nEvent ID: 275503076\n\n\n\n\n\nLeveraging Language in Math: Scaffolds\, Visuals\, and Translanguaging \nDuring this webinar we will… \n\nEngineer Word Problems for Accessibility: Learn how to rewrite\, chunk\, and modify dense math text to reduce linguistic barriers while keeping mathematical rigor high.\n\n\nAnchor Concepts with Targeted Visuals: Discover how to directly pair images\, diagrams\, and visual representations with key vocabulary and problem contexts to build deep conceptual understanding. \n\n\nCapitalize on Multilingual Assets: Apply strategic translanguaging practices that integrate students’ home languages as powerful tools for mathematical reasoning and communication. \n\n\nTarget Audience: K-12 multilingual educators

SUMMARY:The Bilingual Writer’s Toolkit: Syllables\, Genre Verbs\, and Sentence Mechanics
DESCRIPTION:Register Now\n  \n\nDate: Tuesday\, November 24\, 2026 \nPresenter: Rachell Plote\nECPD Credit Hours: 2 hours\n\nEvent ID: 275503078\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Bilingual Writer’s Toolkit: Syllables\, Genre Verbs\, and Sentence Mechanics \nWhy do early bilingual writers stall at the word level? Often\, it’s not because they lack phonetic knowledge\, but because they lack the specific “verb engines” required for different types of writing. This workshop provides K-2 educators with a hands-on roadmap to engineer strong independent sentences in Spanish. Together\, we will look at: \n\nPhonetic Foundations: Moving beyond basic syllables into complex structures and multi-syllabic endurance.\nThe Genre Shift: Mapping out how verb tenses\, subjects\, and endings must explicitly change when students switch between Narrative\, Informational\, and Opinion writing.\nVisual Scaffolding & Application: Practical tools to map high-utility conjugations visually\, helping students independently bridge spelling and structural sentence design. \n\nTarget Audience: Primary Spanish Bilingual Teachers (K-2)\, Instructional Coaches\, Administrators\, Bilingual Program Directors
