English Learners/Multilingual Learners will struggle to make linguistic progress & academic if they are afforded language instruction in isolation only.

The most effective instruction is deliberately INFUSED with language.

There. I said it.

Teachers, use formal language even with young children. It's important for their future math knowledge. Triangles are not pizza! #MMMSummit2022

It’s important that our ELL/MLL feel included in every corner of our buildings at school. Not just with the ELL/MLL teacher. Identity matters. How can you create a more equitable environment where students feel seen? #ELevateSTL22 @ValentinaESL

There are many differences btwn monolingual readers & multilingual or bilingual readers. We simply can’t apply one method & expect the same results.

This is the picture word inductive model(Calhoun1999). Teachers have created variations of the method as well. @DrMelindaMiller & I wrote abt it in #ReadingWritingELs bc this is a powerful technique for teaching #multilinguallearners. We love it! #PWIM
