What a great opporunity for our students!

[Dr. Detrixhe @ProfeDetrixheOW]

Grateful for local community connections to Mexico for sharing traditional Mexican holiday customs, actively interacting with students, and gifting our Spanish 4-5/AP classes with traditional Mexican candies today! ⁦@OlatheWestOwls⁩ ⁦@OlatheWl⁩

German students were all smiles as they read postcards from @olatheschools partner school in Germany, Gymnasium @Penzberger. Nothing like getting actual mail in another language to practice reading, writing, and to connect with another culture! @OlatheWl @AATGOnline @GI_Chicago

[Er Sunday @s_maestra]

@OlatheWl Heritage Spanish Speakers did an excellent job writing bio poems and creating a Picasso esque face!

[Lisa Mansfield @maestramanny]

This year I tried something new with a unit long, ongoing writing task. As I went through to give my last round of feedback before they make their final revisions, I was just blown away! Love ❤️ the risk taking & effort in 1st yr Ss👏🏼 @CTMSBulldog @OlatheWl

Language Teacher Friends! Chat GPT has the ability to have two-way conversations in the target language!!! Type in "Let's have a conversation in (L2)" and it will truly engage you. It's quite cool. Now, the question becomes how to make this a participation grade! #langchat

[Olathe WL @OlatheWl]

Fun ideas to make a rubric come alive in a classroom. Also like the major/minor focus seperation on the rubric. https://t.co/lH69OBqXg7

It was a Monster Mash earlier this week in German 2. Students had to describe their monsters to their partners while the partners sketch what they hear. Gut gemacht, Klasse! @OlatheWl @IntlClub_ONW

[Melissa Campos @mamamameli]

Restaurante practice day in Spanish 2 - One student said this was the ✨BEST✨ activity ever … I was just trying to get them ready to eat out in a Spanish-speaking country one day (and ace their speaking assessment this week!), but I’ll take it! 💛💙 @OlatheWl

[Lisa Mansfield @maestramanny]

Fun unit review with 6th grade intro Spanish today - ✋ ⬆️ till you find a partner while the wheel spins & then answer a ? @CTMSBulldog @OlatheWl

[Kimberly Watts @Frau_kimmie]

German 1 students welcomed Nike Heidenreich from Germany today & learned about the German school system. Sehr interessant! Danke, Nike! @OlatheWl @IntlClub_ONW

[KSWLA @kswla]

[Parthena Draggett @ProfeSra]

José Andrés is our @actfl keynote, but virtually, because he is in the Ukraine distributing food in a recently liberated city, 120,000 meals in one day. Powerful description of his work.

[Heidi Waterkotte @HiTeacherGidget]

Students playing Headbands while 100% in the target language. They were trying to communicate the word Starbucks without saying Starbucks 😂 #EngageOE #aslclass #worldlanguage
