Speaker
Dr. Kate Kinsella · Dr. Kate Kinsella & Associates

Orchestrating classroom interactions that significantly improve an emergent bilingual’s language and literacy skills is both a science and an art. Simply providing curriculum-aligned questions and opportunities to “turn and talk” with peers never yields impressive results. Multilingual learners at every age and English proficiency level require guidance in targeted language to achieve a range of communicative goals within lesson interactions, from offering points of view to comparing and building upon others’ ideas. They also depend upon teachers in every subject area to provide informed, explicit, and systematic instruction that addresses the nonverbal and verbal dimensions of attentive academic listening.


Drawing on recent research initiatives and extensive classroom experience, Dr. Kinsella details the demands posed by K-12 scholarly interactions, and provides evidence-based principles, classroom-tested guidance, guided video viewing, and practical resources to help all students become more confident communicators, prepared for college and the professional workplace.
