Egg hunt day left @Levi_Goins in debt with some of our students! Last I heard, he has until Tuesday to settle up. 💸 #MACSmultilingual

Thankful to get outside with my students today for an egg hunt! Some of them were expecting cash when I told them there was “money” in a few of the eggs. 😂 #MACSmulitingual

Because we have not fully valued and leveraged students' linguistic prowess, it is time to take ownership of our missteps as an educational system. By blaming linguistically diverse students for our English-only ideologies, we only continue their linguistic oppression.

So proud of our multilingual students who visited the Foods class today to teach their peers how to make their favorite Puerto Rican dessert: quesitos. They stood in front of the room & shared their home culture in their 2nd language! 🇵🇷💪🏼 #MACSmultilingual @MACSchools

Multilingual conversation partners at MAHS: work hard, play hard! 🃏 We love to see our students making new friends & practicing their language skills in a low-stakes environment. #MACSmultilingual #MACSawesome @MACSchools

We had fun, enjoyed samples of Puerto Rican cuisine, and raised over $100 for Hurricane Fiona relief! 🇵🇷 Thanks to @SurryUnitedFund for a great night in @MountAiryNC! #MACSmultilingual #Familia @MACSchools

Thankful for the opportunity to support my students in the classroom and on the field! I was honored to stand alongside Carlos tonight to celebrate his accomplishments as a Senior. 💪🏼⚽️🐻 #MACSawesome #MACSmultilingual #Familia @GraniteBears

After listening to their 2nd language in class all day, sometimes they need a brain break! So we’re exercising our math brain to give our language brain a break. I love watching my MLs get excited and engaged! 🧮 #MACSmultilingual

[Morgan Vasquez @ProfeMVasquez]

Our MLs love playing English word games like “Stop!” on Fun Friday! Healthy competition + multilingualism is a good recipe for engagement at the end of the week! #MACSmultilingual #MACSawesome @MACSchools

[Morgan Vasquez @ProfeMVasquez]

Multilingual Learners at MAMS love working with their Peer Tutors from MAHS! Added bonus: seeing MAMS teachers’ faces light up when their own former students come back to tutor! #MACSmultilingual @MACSchools @AmandaEcteach1 @SabrinaM6363

The Puerto Rican sandwiches were a hit! Tri was surprised and so thankful for the time Dashi took to write him a note in Vietnamese. So proud of our ML community! #MACSmultilingual

[Morgan Vasquez @ProfeMVasquez]

I changed roles this year, but @alenord continues to be the 🐐 regardless. Can’t wait to use @AnchorsAides resources for my first conversation partner set up for one of my MLs tomorrow! #Together4MLs #MACSmultilingual

[Morgan Vasquez @ProfeMVasquez]

One of our Multilingual Learners sent me this picture - she made Puerto Rican sandwiches to share with our class, with a note translated to English & Vietnamese. She said “I want everyone to feel appreciated since we’re a little family.” 🫶🏼 #Together4MLs #MACSmultilingual

“… confused or bored students can never be forced to learn anything worthwhile – and …nothing can prevent students from learning when their interest and understanding are engaged.” (Frank Smith, NY Times, 10/15/86, “No way to teach”)
