It is VITAL that we protect the languages students join our classrooms knowing, hearing, understanding, speaking. These are leverages to acquiring English or other languages.

Ignoring languages not only limits students’ participation but also endangers their confidence & identity increasing language loss.

Linguistic oppression has devastating consequences.

Even some adults find that writing is challenging. Now imagine children. Now imagine a child who is learning to write in a language they are still acquiring. 🤯

It isn’t always the easiest task.

Here are some suggestions for supporting Multilingual Learners with writing.

4th grade is writing about their favorite memory or a dream they have inspired by Ringgold’s quilts. I can’t wait to see their stories come to life in next week’s paintings! #BlackHistoryMonth  #faithringgold #BLACKARTIST @LVESCHOOL

We must let go at the thought that learning English as an additional language in school is a problem. #bilingualism is an asset.

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

Language is rooted to our identity. When we try to hide it, suppress, or ignore this part of ourselves, we never truly flourish into the spectacular beauty we were designed to become. - Valentina Gonzalez

Students @OHES_Covington had so much fun breaking the piñata for Hispanic Heritage Month. The class that has the most “keys” each week gets a chance celebrar. Nice spin on PBIS! Students also enjoyed learning to count in Spanish through song! FUN!!b

The remaining @SIOPModel components and features as binder divider title pages here! It’s my hope that we just don’t use these for summer institute, but we’ll add to development throughout the year!

[Carlota Holder @carlota_holder]

SIOP binders for the win this year! I created one pagers for each component and their titles pages to the binder tabs! They’ve been a hit so far! Shout out to @crystal_meiller for the idea! #bettertogether
