In this two-part series,* nationally renowned MLL/ELL expert Dr. Kate Kinsella equips you with classroom-tested tools and evidence-based routines across two critical areas: interaction and reading fluency. In Part 1, Dr. Kinsella draws on research and extensive classroom experience to equip you with step-by-step guidance and classroom-tested resources for setting up and facilitating lesson interactions that build language learner confidence and competence.

By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- Identify the steps for effectively setting up and facilitating a lesson discussion that supports multilingual learner participation
