REEd Research Practice Partnerships
Building Students’ Academic Language in Mathematics Through Integrated English Language Development
A design and development study funded by the National Science Foundation
REEd has partnered with schools in southern California to address an urgent need to improve opportunities and resources for emergent bilinguals. Our partnership focuses on supporting Title III English Learner coaches and teachers to build students’ academic language in mathematics through integrated English language development (iELD/Math) in primary grades.
Building District Capacity to Develop Disciplinary Literacy of Young English Learners
A five-year study funded by the Office of English Language Acquisition.
In partnership with Los Angeles Unified School District, Robla School District, and Boston Public Schools, REEd will pilot, and test a professional development initiative that engages mentors and TK-2 teachers in improving literacy outcomes for young English Learners. Current work involves designing a framework for engaging families of emerging bilinguals. The framework includes parents, teachers, and admin. Professional learning webinars and materials will be piloted in Spring 2021.
