K-12 Newcomer Educator Institute
June 17-19, 2024, at UC Berkeley
The UC Berkeley History Social Science Project will be hosting a 3-day institute in June 2024 in support of our Newcomer Initiative and Resource Hub. K-12 educators will focus on strategies to design curriculum and strategies for newcomers and MLL students to gain access to complex texts in history. We will center student experiences; develop strategies for reading historical sources, vocabulary instruction, and bridging reading to writing through oral discourse; and create scaffolds to facilitate student ability to communicate their learning.
