Full course description
Welcome to ELA and NHA! In this course, you will develop an understanding of the vision for ELA instruction across grade bands. You will better understand how the vision comes to life in classrooms by making connections to the ELA block structure and the resources that are provided to support teachers in their work.
As you work through the course content, we've provided opportunities within each module for you to make connections to what you see in your own building. You may take as much time with these activities as feels beneficial to you.
