@TNTP @LXJSmonk A5: Enlist caregivers in their kids’s academic trajectory. Explain the data to them. Show them how they can help at home. Talk about the benefits of bilingualism. Ensure meetings & all comms are transadapted not just translated. Listen to their hopes & dreams. Empower them.

@TNTP @LXJSmonk A5: School personnel can ask questions and listen carefully to families. They can invite families in to school to share language, culture, and stories in class, on bulletin boards, at assemblies and programs, in newsletters, and in the selection of books. #TNTPMLchat

@TNTP @LXJSmonk A5: Teachers can invite families to share their cultures and traditions with the class through guest speakers, food, and cultural artifacts. #Multilingual texts can also be integrated into the #curriculum.#TNTPMLChat

@TNTP @SanaeOrtiz A4: A strong multilingual education results in stronger academic outcomes and cognitive and social benefits, which increases readiness for college and career AND being bi/multilingual creates access to more employment opportunities and boosts one’s resume. #TNTPMLchat

@TNTP @SanaeOrtiz A4: MLLs also need to see themselves, their cultures and assets represented in their materials. This allows them to feel valued and to see what is possible-which leads to greater #academic outcomes which led to greater social and economic mobility. #InclusiveTeaching #TNTPMLChat

@TNTP @SanaeOrtiz A4: We need to see #multilingualism as an asset and not a hindrance. It opens doors to all types of local and global employment opportunities. #TNTPMLChat

@TNTP @rubenreneorozco A2: We can support multilingual learners by deliberately celebrating bilingualism and elevating the status of the partner language(s). Encourage pride in the linguistic repertoire they bring to school. #TNTPMLchat
