These include advanced trainings as well as specialized trainings
that support the CELL, ExLL, and Second Chance programs.
ADVANCED CELL TRAINING (Grades PreK-6)

CELL teachers and Literacy Coordinators. Sessions will focus on
the integration of strategies and the reciprocity of reading and
writing.
ADVANCED ExLL TRAINING (Grades 3-8)
Two-day workshop on advanced reading and writing strategies for
trained ExLL teachers and Literacy Coordinators. The emphasis will
be on
non-fiction materials as accessible texts at all grade levels.

teachers in teaching mathematics using the CELL Framework.

activities to encourage active participation from both the child
and parents in order to foster a positive elementary school experience.
ASSESSMENT & TEST-TAKING TRAINING

This one-day training has two purposes: 1) to focus on additional
practice with ExLL and Second Chance assessments and guide teachers
to find instructional applications based on these assessments, and
2) to help teachers implement test-taking strategies in the curriculum
in all content areas.

These mini-conferences are developed in response to specific requests
from trained school sites for additional on-site staff development.

tools, and a structure to support them in the delivery of a highly
effective intervention program at their school.
ON-SITE VISITS (Grades PreK-12)
Foundation trainers are available to provide on-site visitations
of classrooms and demonstration coaching session. These visits are
meant to supplement rather than replace the work of the trained
Literacy Coordinator(s).

theory classes, and opportunities for classroom observations. This
initiative is designed to complement the training provided during
School-Based Planning Team sessions and support the work of the
