Come explore how the science of reading can support emergent bilinguals in their journey to become readers and writers. An EAL teacher and a Grade 1 teacher will guide you through how we use UFLI, an explicit and systematic approach to teaching foundational literacy skills, to support the development of every reader in our classroom. You will walk away with the knowledge and resources to immediately implement these practices in your own classroom.
