The Writing Revolution is an approved Continuing Teacher and Leader Education (CTLE) Sponsor for New York school districts. As such, NYS teachers who successfully complete TWR courses may earn clock hours toward their CTLE requirement. Because activities in TWR courses include scaffolded strategies designed for all students, including ELLs/MLLs, in mastering core content, these hours may also be used toward the minimum requirement in language acquisition addressing the needs of English Language Learners.
