Review: THE ESSENTIAL TOOLBOX FOR ELL TEACHERS. "The strategies are practical, the ideas are actionable, and the overall tone is one of optimism and support for both teachers and students." #edusky @larryferlazzo.bsky.social @ilatoday.bsky.social #T2Tchat #ELLs www.middleweb.com/52492/the-es...
Let’s start up something! Let’s build pride in being bilingual. Let’s let young students know how important their languages are and how smart they are for being able to communicate in many ways! #languagelearning #bilingüismo #multilingualism #teachingideas #teachingenglish #teachingkids
I believe in acculturation versus assimilation because I’m not afraid of your differences and ideas. I love your uniqueness and value the perspective you bring. I want you to know that you belong. #teachingenglish #teachingkids #languages #languagelearning #multilingualism #bilingual_kids
This is an important time to stand up for language education. Teachers of multilingual learners, or English learners, in our nation are important. Every teacher is a language teacher, and every student is a language learner. Language is in every classroom. #teaching #languages #education
It’s possible that one of my favorite sections of our new book Welcome to Teaching Multilingual Learners is protecting their rights. ⚖️ This section is likely more relevant today than it was when we wrote it. #multilingual #multilingualism ##ELsky
I was in a great #PL today w @valentinaesl.bsky.social. “We are all language learners.” #EL Ss “don’t have to fit in, they need to belong.” #EduSky #UDL #teacher #education #ESL #inclusion
More from @valentinaesl.bsky.social: Second language learning: “It’s not an intervention; it’s a celebration!” #ESL #UDL #education #EduSky #teacher #inclusion
Never forget how incredible you are and how essential your work is. Be proud of the way you shape multilingual minds and create opportunities that ripple far beyond your classroom. #teaching #teachingenglish #teachingideas #teachingresources #multilingualism #bilingual #languagelearning
What systems are in place to ensure that emergent bilingual students participating in any program (even ESL) don’t pay the ultimate price for English language acquisition? First language is a valuable, beautiful asset. #rootedlinguistics #language #multilingualism #bilingual #teaching
Accommodating instruction doesn’t have to be complicated. Even the small moves we make can impact students in big ways. #rootedlinguistics #teaching #language
Oh how I love languages. ♥️ I love hearing them and learning them. I love learning about them. What a richness they bring to our lives. 💎 #nationalbilingualmultilinguallearneradvocacymonth #bilingualkids #bilingualadvocacymonth #multilingualism #languages #languagelover #languagelearning

Sending a little love for all the educators who have poured their hearts into serving multilingual learners this year. Thank you for shining a light on their gifts. #rootedlinguistics #teaching #language #languages #languageschool #languagelearning #multilingual #multilingualism #bilingüismo
Because of all the bureaucracy and external pressure, being an educator of multilingual learners can feel overwhelming. Staying focused on the students and what they need helps us to accomplish our goals as their teachers. ♥️🙏🏽🌎
The best teachers are lifelong students, simply disguised as educators. #neverstoplearning #teaching #education #teachingideas #learning #learningisfun #readingaddict
