There is only one week remaining to apply for this amazing opportunity!!
Please share the following FREE opportunity with every secondary world language teacher you know:
We want to help you become a leader within your department, district, and state! Spend the day with nationally recognized experts to gain more knowledge on proficiency-based teaching and the skills, materials, and confidence to share what you have learned in a workshop that you present to others in your area. (The link to apply to attend this FREE event is listed below but hurry! The application deadline is August 20th!!)
This workshop, sponsored by Wayside Publishing, will be presented in two parts on Thursday, September 29, 2022. In the morning, we will focus on topics within the realm of proficiency-based teaching. In the afternoon, we will spend our time developing presentation skills to present the same topic to another audience and develop an action
plan for that presentation.
Morning session: The focus is on using communicative language tasks in our classrooms.
We will walk you through a sample task and then break it down, looking at how a task is different from an exercise, how to adapt tasks for different proficiency levels, using tasks in different modes of communication and using backward design to plan for your use of tasks within your curriculum. The morning will end by creating tasks that can be used in any classroom.
Afternoon session: During this time, we will focus on helping you gain the skills needed to successfully present to adults and the resources to do so, along with time to put those skills into practice. We will end our time together by coming up with an action plan for your future presentation.
