Ta very much for bringing the multilingual library to Stirling, Scotland! I enjoyed a shared reading of a colourful Korean book, a sweet Welsh-English book and discovering the Cree script! @MultilingLondon @hmking_linguist 📚🎒

Love this - and while we are at it, can we make those libraries multilingual, please?

[Dr Sabine Little @sabinelittle]

The 4th Forum of Heritage Language Coalitions in Europe conference took place last week-end, with 260+ registrants speaking 40+ languages. What a fabulous organising committee to be a part of. Subscribe to the newsletter at https://t.co/UxG2ezfEdl

Today, we are at @BarnsleyLibs with Traditional Tales, Untraditionally Told - look at this fab polar bear from earlier in the week :) @Maker_Futures

The Power of Picture Books 📚

Picture books ignite curiosity and build a love for reading!

Through vibrant visuals, they help kids understand stories, learn new words, and enjoy reading together.

A perfect start to lifelong reading! ❤️ #bookedug #childrenslibrary

The best advocates for using a Multilingual approach in schools are the children themselves! (Please watch the trailer below)

[Prof Julia Snell @SnellJulia]

Fantastic to see this report in print & to have contributed in a small way. I look forward to the changes it will bring (like more emphasis on spoken language in the NC, greater space for dialogue in classrooms, better teacher training on oracy) 1/2

Changing the narrative about "EAL" is so important!
