(2020) Finding the right place to start when working with migrant Students with Interrupted Formal Education (SIFE) is important when designing an appropriate and effective instructional plan. In this workshop, we will discuss the useful resources about SIFE students available through the school (NYSESLAT scores and proficiency levels, SIFE screeners, Reading levels, IEPs) and how Migrant Educators can use this information, along with the MEP needs assessment, to inform their practice. From there, we will discuss effective activities and strategies that can be used with students from the first day.
