Join us on June 7 @ 3:30- 4:30 to participate in a collaborative discussion around the question: What have we learned about supporting MLLs in mathematics? Using Jason To’s webinar, Talking Inclusive Mathematics: What De-streaming Means for MLLs and Teachers, as a springboard!
New Multilingual Resources have been added. Check out the language bundles for practical resources you can use right away with your students. Visuals, social stories, books in different languages, translations, and more. :) #OntEd#WRDSBMLL https://t.co/EADXYtSZTR
“Multilingual students operate across named languages or use their translanguaging abilities …Therefore, they may know a variety of sounds associated with a given letter in more than one named language.”
I urge every teacher who has English learners/MLs in their classroom to read this piece. Let's think deeply about SoR & Multilingual Learners. @AscenziMoreno@TESOL_Assn https://t.co/EoVrRs00MH
