Professional development will be provided to Migrant Education – Family Biliteracy teachers from across the county. Together we will address the needs of building biliterate children in preparation for entry into school. The training is aligned with the Measurable Program Objectives outlined in the State Service Delivery Plan.

Participants will be provided with strategies and resources that build upon students’ native language to develop biliteracy and create a bridge between a child’s home language and the language being acquired. Training will also include culturally responsive teaching, parent involvement and engagement, and social-emotional development strategies.
