Great learning at Biliteracy para todos Winter Institute "Content is often taught in the absence of language and literacy, but content is always tested in the presence of language and literacy"-Pratts & Mercury @rossieducation@LisdBILESL
@vivianrpratts1 Content is learned through language and language is learned through content. We are striving towards academic language! #biliteracyparatodos
@SandraMercuriEC Through cross linguistic connections, we are teaching and improving language. In the process, we are also improving literacy and exposing students different areas of content. #biliteracyparatodos
