The trainings are conducted by WestEd, Center for Child and Family Studies in collaboration with the California Preschool Instructional Network (CPIN). To become familiar with CPIN, please visit their web site at www.cpin.us. Because these trainings are part of the overall goals of the Child Development Division, they are related to the efforts of the Desired
Results system. To view more on Desired Results and their trainings, visit www.sonoma.edu/cihs/desiredresults/training.
This training addresses the education of the fastest growing segment of the preschool population--English Learners. The goals of these trainings are:
- To provide teachers with strategies for educating young English Learners and familiarize them with the research that informed those strategies
- To help teachers and administrators recognize the gifts and talents that preschool English Learners bring to their classrooms and programs
- To introduce the resource guide, "Preschool English Learners: Principles and Practices to Promote Language, Literacy, and Learning"
