Multilinguals bring a wealth of strengths to the classroom but encounter distinct difficulties in developing writing skills in English. What does it take to engage them? In this workshop, participants will learn about different ways to foster an open and non-judgmental atmosphere in the classroom as well as other strategies that will help engage multilinguals with writing and speaking. Participants will learn how writing and speaking practice can be incorporated into the instructional routines; a practice that is crucial for building overall literacy skills.
