TSL 550 Topic 5 Benchmark Family Engagement Plan GCU

TSL 550 Topic 5 Benchmark Family Engagement Plan GCU

Create a family engagement plan in digital format (e.g., PowerPoint, Prezi) that could be presented to administrators at the school in which you have been involved. This nine-month plan should ensure school administrators that you will (1) teach curricula that are free of culturally irresponsible content; (2) engage the families of your ELLs by developing communication methods between their homes and your school; and (3) provide resources that would be useful for your ELLs and their families in your community. Your plan should include:

  • Examples of culturally responsible multicultural or other educational items that will be used in more than one content area throughout the school year.
  • Specific plans for at least four seasonal events (two each semester) that will engage the families of your ELLs in shared learning experiences. Provide details regarding how your events will be promoted, carried out, and how they will facilitate engagement and learning. Your events could include something like the following examples: Curriculum Night, Family Literature Night, Math Game Night, etc.
  • Examples of before and after school programs that would serve as educational resources for your ELLs and families throughout the year.
  • At least five community resources in your area that you would promote among the families of your ELLs.
  • An example of how you would advocate for your ELLs and their families by inviting community leaders or business owners to participate in some of the educational events that you have created.

Include presenter’s notes, in-text citations, and a reference slide that contains three to five sources from the required readings or the GCU Library that support your ideas.
