When I read-aloud & skip a page or sentence & kids notice, I know they’re listening!
#ReadAlouds are for all grade levels & content areas.

Language development is my jam and I’m going to spread it.
If you are a language specialist, #ELD (English Language Development) teacher, #bilingual educator, world language teacher, or hold a similar role, you play an important role in influencing how languages are valued.
#Language development holds the key to effective communication, cognitive growth, and social interaction, enabling students to express their thoughts, learn new concepts, and connect with peers and teachers.

An important part of #DiaDeLosMuertos is the ofrenda - a space to honor & remember people who have passed away.
From creating an ofrenda to teaching about the holiday's traditions, @USLatinoMuseum has resources for celebrating in the classroom: latino.si.edu/learn/teaching…

When I was an ESL teacher in a school where students spoke over 20+ different languages, people often asked me how I taught them all English & how many languages I spoke!
Answer: I used content-based language instruction that included comprehensible input & low-stress output.
No need to know every language! But I did need to know every student. ❤️

In today's global market, businesses that fail to invest in bilingualism are leaving money on the table. Language gaps cost opportunities. ow.ly/uEg050TK5j2

Being bilingual is a powerful gift!
Let’s help kids unwrap their linguistic gifts and use them at young ages.

Multilingual Learners may meet reading & writing with socio-cultural backgrounds that come with different schema & cultural norms. Their languages may or may not have strong connections with English. MLs will meet reading & writing at different levels of language proficiency both in their first language & in English. The focus on language, oracy, and comprehension is vital.

What is background knowledge and how do we build it?
Background knowledge is an essential element to reading comprehension. What we know impacts what we understand.
We can increase understanding by building background knowledge through the use of multimedia, a wide range of reading on a topic, playing with words, and connecting ideas with analogies.
