CALL Institute Supporting the CA CCSS for ELA/Literacy
CONTENT AREA LANGUAGE AND LITERACY (CALL) TRAINING
CALL offers middle and high school content teachers practical, research-based instructional routines that help students access and engage with a variety of complex text across content areas. The institute provides instructional routines that scaffold students’ comprehension of complex text and academic language development, making challenging text accessible, relevant, and comprehensible to all students, including English learners. The end goal is for students to independently comprehend complex texts across a range of types and disciplines in order to build strong content knowledge.

- Learn to implement instructional strategies and routines to help make complex academic text more accessible to all students, increase students' use of academic language, both oral and written, and foster motivation and engagement
- Learn strategies for differentiation to facilitate access to core content for English learners across levels of English language proficiency (Integrated ELD)
- Learn strategies to build into and from content instruction to develop the academic English language that English learners need for content learning in English (Designated ELD)
