Thursday Thoughts- people do not have a “broken language”… let’s try saying they are “developing language”. Being #multilingual is an asset, let’s make people believe that 😊⁦@emilyfranESL⁩ #wordsmatter #D25ML

@SherryTeacher @KatieToppel @ValentinaESL @AndreaHonigsfel Yes, is it listening if the student can't understand the parts of the words or have any understanding of what they are listening to?

Teachers, to start off 2022, I'm offering two free 30-minute virtual appearances. I can talk about writing, share a preview of I Survived in progress, or whatever you would like. No limit to the number of students, can do grades 3-8. RT to enter. I will notify winners 1/10.

@Larryferlazzo I did research for undergrad with microfiche.

@Larryferlazzo And social emotional learning! Who is against social emotional learning?

[Kimberly Canion @KimCanion]

@TheCoachAdair @MsMessineo To me that is the same lesson then. You are continuing the same lesson.

[Kimberly Canion @KimCanion]

@TheCoachAdair @MsMessineo You don't need to model somehow in every lesson? Then what are you doing to teach? I am not being snarky I really am looking to understand..

[Kimberly Canion @KimCanion]

@easkelton @mrobinson867 I agree 100 percent. My question is looking for better terms when we are discussing groups of students. There has to be a better way.

[Dr. Manuel Scott @ManuelScott]

Just want to give some perspective about “learning loss” from someone who missed 60-90 days of school from 4th - 9th grade. You can’t control how far behind kids have fallen. All you can do is meet them right where they are, as they are, and help them there.

It’s not that EL students completely lack background knowledge but rather they may lack the background knowledge needed in the current context or language. #Seidlizt7steps @Seidlitz_Ed @JohnSeidlitz @MsSalvac @AbbotsfordSD

@paulnmistieber @Toppel_ELD I text with a Google voice number. It allows me to directly text parents but I can turn it off if there are issues.

Saturday thoughts with @JoseMedinaJr89

Before jumping to intervention, consider ... what does your Tier 1 linguistic support look like? Have you created systems for students to access the grade-level standards?

[🇺🇸Rubén Degollado 🇲🇽 @ruben_degollado]

Teacher friends, if that Spanish-speaking bilingual student calls you ‘Teacher,’ they are translating Maestro/a & they mean it with the utmost respect. If you correct, correct with love. Or better yet, correct and receive the respect they’re giving you and give it right back.

Don’t blame wind for the Texas power shortage. Gas, coal and nuclear accounted for more than 80% of the shortfall.
