About This Webinar

Join Diane Staehr Fenner from SupportEd; teacher and author, Larry Ferlazzo, and Lydia Breiseth with Colorín Colorado for a webinar on the challenges of distance learning during the Coronavirus Pandemic.

The challenges of the global COVID-19 pandemic are many. Although distance learning has quickly become the default solution for the more than 54 million students displaced by school closures, it is estimated that 25-50 percent of the 5 million English language learners around the country either do not have the appropriate technology devices needed for online learning or access to the internet. Join us to learn more about some best practices we are seeing thus far for both groups of ELLs—those with Internet access and those without.

 #1 COVID-19 Special Populations Webinar

Professional Credit

Available for one-hour of PD credit. A certificate of completion will be available for download at the end of your session.

On Demand version will be available in closed captioning in English and Spanish.

I liked this experience. I was in a community of people that I can relate to; we are all here to help our students. We are all trying our best to teach them and help them in the time of crisis. And it felt nice to know that ELLS teachers are thinking and feeling a lot the same that I am not alone. Thank you for this interaction.

I enjoyed the webinar and really like several suggestions and common sense approaches of calling to see if everything is OK...the translation APs....suggestions for simple lesson and the reasons ESOL students may not be responding. I would recommend this webinar to others and also liked the parent section and how to help parents organize.
