Session Abstract
Increasing Academic language is an important factor for an English Learner’s success in school and beyond. Using both Jeff Zwiers and Kate Kinsella's research on academic conversations, language, and writing, we aim to provide the background knowledge and tools to increase academic language use in all classrooms, regardless of content.
