The EAL Coffee Hour aims to bring together educators in a collaborative environment that emphasizes effective instructional practices. This session will serve as a productive work session for both mainstream and EAL intervention teachers. Participants are encouraged to bring current projects or resources they are developing for their classrooms to support newcomer EAL students. Specific questions related to effective instructional practices are also welcomed. Don't forget to also bring your favorite tasty beverage to sip while we share and collaborate! Given the increasing number of newcomer students entering our classrooms—often with limited experience in formalized school settings and emerging language skills—our goal is to facilitate a smoother transition for these students while also supporting teachers in meeting instructional demands. This gathering provides a valuable platform for sharing insights and strategies across different school divisions, fostering a supportive community dedicated to enhancing our teaching methods. This session is relevant for educators across all grade levels, from primary to high school.
