I'm honored to offer these words to our teachers of #newcomers & #MLLs. This kind of free PD was always critical for me as a #newcomer teacher. If you're teaching our immigrant students, I hope his helps.

In everything we do, the Seidlitz team prioritizes three core values: user-friendliness, a sense of purpose or calling, and bringing joy to the work. We love seeing those values in action—in Texas and across the US.

Let us recognize that multilinguals bring a wealth of knowledge to our classrooms. A lack of English proficiency is not a reflection of a lack of intelligence or potential. Instead, it is an opportunity to build on their unique strengths & talents as they acquire a new language. #EduSky
The image shows Gloria, a character from Modern family, with long brown hair and a serious facial expression. She is wearing a patterned blue-green top and appears to be in a conversation or argument. The text overlaid on the image says, “Do you even know how smart I am in Spanish?”
