So fortunate to have the @adrianmendozaed in @RoundRockISD today! “If students don’t verbalize; students don’t internalize.” Students need opportunities to speak, listen, read, & write in math using academic language. #emergentbilingualprograms @Seidlitz_Ed

Collaboration is a must! Collaborating for multilingual learners' success means we reach across the "table," extend our hands, and come together to create circumstances where our learners will undoubtedly thrive.
Everyone is invited! Everyone is part of the journey. YOU serve MLs.

Having very clear daily routines and expectations can reduce the cognitive load for MLs allowing them to focus energy more on language development and learning concepts. 🙌🏽🙌🏽 https://t.co/0nXlX8lTAc

“Servant leadership is the art of letting go and realizing that the real power of leadership is empowering others, caring for others, and giving them what they need.”

[Coach AJ 🎯 Mental Fitness @coachajkings]

John Harbaugh said, "You have to come to the realization that you don't drive the car all of the time...You've got to have faith, trust, and belief. You've got to empower the people around you."

Great leaders believe they serve the team.

Servant leadership is the art of letting go and realizing that the real power of leadership is empowering others, caring for others, and giving them what they need.

Leadership isn't about receiving anything from your team, it's about giving and supporting the team.
• It comes down to caring.
• It comes down to wanting to see others at their best.
• It comes down to meeting people where they are at.

John Harbaugh Principles for Servant Leadership:
1. You don't drive the car all of the time
This is the art of letting go as a leader. You have to have faith and trust your team. Empower them, love them, and care for them. You have to be smart, tough, and use good judgment. It should be easy to serve them and want to see them at their best.

2. It shouldn’t be about where it takes you, it should be about where it takes us
It isn't about what you can accomplish, but asking what can we accomplish together. Ask yourself what can we build together that is special and can last? The goal should be to make it bigger than just the bottom line, whether that is winning games or making money.

3. Check your own heart
It should be about connecting and truly caring about your team. Ask yourself what is your motivation and intention behind what you are doing.
• Do you really care about your team?
• Are you showing it? Because you should.

4. Get feedback from everyone
Serve the team by learning from the team. John Harbaugh says the 4 most important words he asks someone is, "What do you think?"
• Ask for their ideas on improvement, growth, and change.
• Ask if they are happy and they feel they are doing their best.
• Let their voice be heard.

5. Find out who you need to be helping
It’s easy to just sit back and wait around, but you need to take action. You need to help people get to where they need to be. Ask:
• How are we doing?
• Where are we not performing?
• Are people having problems where I can help?
These are the areas where you need to look for improvement.

6. How we act around each other
It shouldn't just be about yourself, but it should be about the team. You should have a great attitude, be collaborative, and work together. If you can help each other accomplish what you need then you have a chance to be great. Ask:
• Are we helping each other
• Are we connecting?

"The first and most important choice a leader makes is the choice to serve, without which one’s capacity to lead is severely limited." - Robert Greenleaf

An oldie but goodie. Wait time ⏰ for teachers is THINK TIME 💭for students and is essential for multilingual learners. Don’t underestimate it. 💥

A teacher I used to work with always tells her students that she will raise the bar high, but will always love higher.

I love it.

Raise the bar high, but always love higher.

[🌍 Dr. Vαℓєηтιηα Gσηzαℓєz ♥️🙌🏽 @ValentinaESL]

As advocates for multilingual learners it’s vital that we work HAND IN HAND with mainstream teachers. And that’s true in our professional learning communities too.

Never in isolation.

We are better together.
