Leslie Hamburger
   
The changing demographics of American schools and the chronic underperformance of second language learners require a different approach in pedagogy. Leslie Hamburger, Senior Program Associate in the Teacher Professional Development Program at WestEd, will present a pedagogy of hope to provide students with rigorous and well-supported opportunities for academic and linguistic success in secondary mathematics. Ms. Hamburger will demonstrate carefully structured mathematics scaffolding tasks that challenge students while simultaneously providing them with the necessary support to achieve the lesson’s specific learning objectives. These tasks amplify and enrich the linguistic and content knowledge needed to achieve in secondary mathematics.

Please see our latest SchoolsMovingUp/date for information on the other webinars in our Promoting English Learners' Success webinar series.
