As described by Young (2024), “Unnecessary instruction for students who are advanced in reading is likely to delay learning and may result in student frustration and boredom”

[Regie Routman @regieroutman]

Excellent article for supporting language and literacy skills for multilingual learners. Practical ideas for librarians also apply to teachers and students setting up equitable and accessible classroom libraries.

Hard, direct, critical feedback related to inequity is an invaluable gift, not an affront. It should be received with gratitude. In most organizations leaders view that feedback as an affront and reward silence and complicity with inequity, often under the guise of "community."

These kids are AMAZING. This is over at Wetherbee Elem. where students are in a two way dual language program. They spend half the day in an English speaking class, and the other half in Spanish speaking class. More on their success tonight @ 5pm. @MyNews13 @OCPS_MSD @OCPSnews
