Being bilingual is a powerful gift! Let’s help kids unwrap their linguistic gifts and use them at young ages. #bilinguismo #bilingue #hispanicheritagemonth #teachingideas #teachingresources #teachingkids #languages #languagelearning

When society no longer respects teachers, students won't respect them, and soon there will be no teachers, leaving a void in education that will compromise the very future of society.

This is not a new graphic but it shows the difference between the terms used to describe the students v the programs they might participate in. ♥️ English learner has a heavy emphasis on a singular language and what students are unable to do to which some feel is deficit based. Multilingual learner focuses on all of the languages students have and are acquiring and some feel it is more asset based.

Want to know which instructional method has a NEGATIVE impact on student learning? 👇🏽
The ONLY instructional strategy with a NEGATIVE effect size: Lecturing. -0.26 or 1/2 a year's loss Why? It's passive. There's no room for engagement or interaction necessary for deep understanding & skill development. Just a lot of one person talking.

A student’s English proficiency does not limit what they can do or what they can achieve. Sketchnote: @ValentinaESL

People who speak two languages may be better at shifting their attention from one thing to another compared to those who speak one, according to a study published this month in the journal Bilingualism: Language and Cognition. ow.ly/9T9750Qa7Ls
