How do we move from teacher-led input to independent student output? This session introduces key GLAD strategies designed to bridge the gap between language acquisition and academic performance. Our goal is to demonstrate how high impact strategies with minimal preparation can meet the needs of all learners while providing teachers with data in real time. We will utilize the following GLAD strategies to enhance student oracy and writing: Observation Charts, Sentence Patterning Chart, Cooperative Strip Paragraph, 10/2 Academic Discussions Bring with you: At least 6 pictures that align with a unit you teach (think of the big ideas or concepts you will cover with your students), a list of important nouns related to your unit of study, a topic sentence demonstrating a key takeaway from the learning, a digital copy of a text you use with students.
