Elementary Multicultural Club. Our monolinguals learn about the countries around the world! Their while sharing what what they had learned was contagious. Our work is more than integrating ML’s into our school culture, is about teaching our students about other #Cultures too! #MLL

Always collaborating to creates systems, because meeting the needs of diverse multilingual learners and their families is done more effectively when we team up than when we work alone. My first appearance at #ConnTESOL 51 #EduSky #ElSky #DuallyIdentified #SPED #MLs

Here’s the alt text for the image:

A presentation slide titled “Meeting the Needs of Diverse Learners through Collaboration, Empowerment & Leadership.” The names Lily Corniell-Cordero, EL, Equity & SS, and Christina Kiley, Supervisor of Special Services, are listed underneath, along with “Plainville Community Schools, October 2022.” The slide features an illustration of four people in a collaborative setting with a flipchart, laptop, and plants in the background.

My title: Multilingual Maven of Blue Sky 🫶🏼 My account’s vibe you ask? “Feels like a warm hug wrapped up in a bilingual blanket.” I’ll take it. What’s your vibe? Let’s have a little fun together . #EduSky #ElSky blueskyroast.com

Estou aprendendo português. Embarking on the journey of learning a new language to better understand the experiences of our ML’s has been eye-opening. It is only by stepping into their shoes and experiencing it firsthand that we can truly grasp the depth of their journey. #ElSky #EduSky.

The image shows a green background with a stylized icon of the Brazilian flag in the center. Below the icon, it states:
“You completed 646 lessons in Portuguese.

You absolutely crushed it!”

A share button is visible beneath the text, along with navigation indicators showing “2 / 11.”

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?”

Every child that reaches for a book should be met with “windows AND mirrors.” If readers don’t find themselves and their lived experiences in the books they read, they may find it difficult to connect with reading and to forge a love for reading. #EduSky

Valuing languages shows up in different ways in schools. One way, is finding it displayed around the building. #ElSky #EduSky #Biliteracy #Multilingualism #Bilingüe

Two bilingual banners promoting Plainville High School’s dual enrollment program, allowing students to earn college credits while in high school. The left banner is in English and highlights benefits like saving tuition costs and experiencing college-level courses. The right banner is in Spanish, offering the same details. Both feature logos of partnered universities, including UConn, CCSU, CT State Community College, and Goodwin University. Background includes bookshelves and a doorway.

"Language access" refers to ensuring that students who are not yet proficient in English can fully participate in school activities, allowing them to understand and engage with the educational system regardless of language abilities. Add copies of literary text in their home language #Elsky #EduSky

The image shows three copies of the book Ilíada by Homero, part of the Alma Clásicos Ilustrados series. The Spanish translation of “The Iliad”. The book cover is orange with an illustration of two ancient Greek warriors in black, facing each other in combat. One holds a shield and spear, while the other wields a spear. Below the title, the cover notes that the illustrations are by Antonio Santos. The books are stacked on a wooden surface.

Sharing the serene and peaceful sunrise at Newport, RI Cliffwalk on this beautiful Sunday morning. Returning renewed & recharged.

This image depicts a serene beach scene under a clear blue sky with the sun shining brightly above the horizon. The sunlight reflects off the calm ocean water, creating a shimmering effect. In the foreground, there is a rocky area with scattered stones and patches of seaweed leading to smooth, undisturbed sand. The scene conveys a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere, showcasing the beauty of nature.

This image shows a quiet beach on a sunny day with a clear blue sky. The ocean stretches out to the horizon, with gentle waves meeting the sandy shoreline.

This is your reminder to do something to recharge this weekend. Watching the sun setting in Rhode Island was how I “plugged” in to Nature. ¡No te olvides de hacer algo para recargarte este fin de semana! Ver el atardecer en Rhode Island es como yo conecté con la naturaleza. #EduSky #ElSky

This image shows a vibrant sunset over the ocean, with shades of orange, yellow, and pink blending into the sky, scattered with dark clouds. The sun is setting on the horizon, casting a golden glow across the water. In the foreground, there is a rocky jetty where a silhouette of a person stands, gazing out at the scene. To the right, a few other figures are visible near the shore, enjoying the view. The scene captures a peaceful and reflective moment by the sea.

My husband reminds me that when I am out in public, I don’t need to help, guide or support people with children (mostly translating). 🫣. I can’t help myself 🫶🏼

Without simplifying this text, what could teachers do to make this text more comprehensible for students who can decode? ✔️ guiding question ✔️ synonyms ✔️ images ✔️ teacher caption ✔️ audio

#Coaching is about helping educators feel their #efficacy, fine tune their skills, and find their joy. It’s thought partnership. Coaching is not “show you how to do the curriculum”. #coachingmatters

Language matters and words are powerful. Have you ever taken a moment to self reflect on the language we are using and hearing? Below is a way to start. #Edusky #ELChat #MLL #EB #DuallyIdentified #Mindsetshift
