Do you need effective structures and strategies to close achievement gaps for students receiving tier 2 intervention? Successful intervention goes beyond identifying what students need to learn – it also considers how they approach learning.
We’ll explore strategies to help learners who struggle with both reading comprehension and the cognitive processes necessary for success. Using the lead4ward framework, we’ll focus on practical tools, scaffolds and routines that equip teachers to build students’ confidence, strengthen their skills and improve academic success.
Whether your students need support in developing implicit and explicit comprehension or critical thinking skills, this session equips educators with strategies and routines to bridge learning gaps and make learning accessible and meaningful for all.
what you’ll learn:
a standardized and systematic framework for tier 2 support that:
- prioritizes which students need support and which strategies and routines will maximize access and understanding over time
- focuses on sequenced processes, evidence-based strategies and focused routines that ensure concept development to close achievement gaps
- integrates formal and informal measures to monitor progress and student growth to inform instruction and intervention
- meets HB1416 intervention requirements effectively
- be engaged learners of academic vocabulary
- boost thinking and academic discourse
- analyze and use complex visuals
- make connections and apply their learning in a variety of ways
- a simple, engaging routine that streamlines intervention processes and supports both content understanding and the thinking skills students need to succeed
- strategies for whole group, small group, and supplemental instruction (HB 1416)
- how to support responsive instruction with loopback or spiral review, focusing on high-impact learning, visuals, and vocabulary
- how to use a metacognitive routine to reinforce fluency and flexibility with vocabulary and visuals for improved learning and long-term transfer
audience: Teachers and leaders of Emergent Bilingual Students (all grades, all content areas)
Effective intervention for emergent bilinguals begins with meaningful access. We'll explore how language development intersects with content learning and how to build students' thinking with intentional support. Using lead4ward resources and the Proficiency Level Descriptors (PLDs), participants rehearse practical ways to scaffold and deliver instruction that helps EBs succeed with grade-level content. Whether you're supporting EBs in core classrooms or small group settings, you'll leave with actionable strategies that support academic vocabulary acquisition, student discussion, reading comprehension, and writing while connecting language learning directly to your instructional goals. All student resources will be available in English and Spanish.
