The Role of Language - PYP - Category 3: Virtual - Closed


RECOMMENDED FOR:

Classroom teachers.


Registrations for this workshop are now closed.


Workshop Overview:

All teachers are teachers of language. The Primary Years Programme (PYP) views all languages as equally important. This includes the language of instruction, mother tongue, English as a second language (ESL), English as an additional language (EAL) and host- country languages. This workshop explores the fluid nature of language learning as a continuum, not developmentally tied to an age or stage. You will examine the varying roles of language teachers in advising, supporting or integrating language in the programme of inquiry or in a single subject. You will look at the importance of learning language, learning about language and learning through language. You will be guided in the development of a language policy.
