Do the assessment yourself and ask a colleague to mark your work according to the ISMG. You’ll be better at teaching something you have first hand experience with.

Languages & cultures = identity Value ALL languages in your classroom, show interest in the languages that your students speak. You can bring students' languages into your classroom even if you don't speak them, consider identity texts, language mapping, bilingual dictionary use.

A truly inspirational keynote address from @DrSRiddle at the @ETAQld State Conference today. A call educate for democracy, and to prioritise teaching in line with the English curriculum over baseless exercises in data collection. #etaq22

‘Read the world, not just the words.’ It takes an important message to keep a gaggle of English teachers interested & alert on a Saturday afternoon. Thank you @DrSRiddle #etaq2022

Love the idea to make a little resource pack for parents to share our learning in culturally sensitive units. Something I've not thought of... and a wonderful way to involve them in our conversations #etaq22

It was such a privilege to hear readings of her own works from @SaundersKirli and to be inspired and encouraged to "kick the hornet's nest" and embrace many voices in literature. #etaq22
