About This Lesson
Part of the 2019 AFT TEACH Conference.
Looking for approaches you can use to develop effective home-school partnerships with families of English language learners? In this session, you will examine ways to increase familiarity with the diverse cultures of your community to better identify their needs, create a more welcoming school environment, and develop culturally responsive, two-way communications to strengthen meaningful engagement with diverse families. Part 2 will be held at 3:30 p.m. today. Participants must attend both sessions to qualify for a certificate.
