Webinars

How has Clicker changed the way your students learn – and how much more could it do this year?

Join our upcoming webinar where teachers from Clicker schools share the real-life impact they saw with Clicker last academic year - and how they made it happen.

You’ll hear fantastic success stories like…

“I can get all of the things that are inside of me out, I can write now and I couldn’t before.”

“This student is no longer in smaller groups; she keeps up with her peers and is now working at age expectations. Whereas before Clicker, she was working at two or three years behind. Clicker has had a massive impact on her.”

- Louise Turnbull, Special Educational Needs Coordinator

• Share your biggest ‘wow’ moment for a Clicker user this year
  
• What’s one top tip for other schools using Clicker?

As English Language Learners (ELL) progress through their language journey, the support they receive can make a lasting difference in their confidence, academic success, and ability to fully engage with learning. When students aren’t given the tools they need at each stage, it can lead to missed opportunities for growth - especially in literacy.

Following the success of our first session, we’re excited to invite you to Part 2 of our free webinar series: Using Clicker to Build ELL Literacy Proficiency.

In this session, we’ll explore how Clicker can be used to support ELL students in the final three stages of language acquisition: Speech Emergence, Intermediate Fluency, and Advanced Fluency.

Led by Hannah, an experienced Education Consultant with an ESOL Endorsement in Florida, this session will guide you through:

• How to identify and support students in the Speech Emergence, Intermediate Fluency, and Advanced Fluency stages.
  
• Practical strategies and examples of how Clicker resources can be used to scaffold academic content and empower students to thrive in their literacy development.
  
• Approaches that foster critical thinking, academic writing, and fluency in upper elementary learners.

Who should attend:

• Educators supporting ELL beyond the early stages of language acquisition.
  
• Teachers looking for engaging, scaffolded literacy tools for upper elementary learners.
  
• Anyone who attended Part 1 and wants to continue building their expertise using Clicker to support ELL.
