Maya Angelou This quote reflects why we attend the Pennsylvania Training and Technical Assistance (PATTAN) Conference; to gather information on high-leverage practices drawn from the Science of Reading and the Science of Instruction, so that we can implement those practices to improve the learning and lives of the children we serve. In this end-note, Dr. Archer will focus on these highly effective practices, some are old (Gold) and some are new (Silver), but none of them should be forgotten. This Endnote is designed to summarize and wrap up our great conference.

Dr. Julie Esparza Brown joins PaTTANPod to explore how educators can improve literacy and language outcomes for English learners (ELs) with disabilities by embedding culturally and linguistically appropriate instruction into existing multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS). Dr. Brown introduces the PLUSS Model, a framework designed to infuse evidence-based second language acquisition practices within each MTSS tier and provide tailored support for dually identified students, and a tool that educators can use reflect on their implementation of PLUSS strategies.

Representatives from the Butler Area School District joined PaTTANpod to showcase their efforts in building oral language and vocabulary amongst adolescent students.
