I watched seasons drift by my window for 2 years as I worked for hours on end. For all the fun events I had to respectfully decline because I had to write. For all the times I said “I’m so done w/this”. Tonight was the WHY that kept me going.

Mr. Purificato’s 1st grade class traveled to Venezuela & Colombia today so I grabbed (both) my passports & tagged along. It was a full immersive experience inclusive of security & customs, followed by eating arepas 🫓 once we got to Colombia.

How do you define “low” when you use that adjective to define ELLs?
ELLs are capable of rising to ANY task-dependent on how You properly prepare to lift them up 🚀

2 more times for the people in the way back 🔊🔊👂🏽👂🏽...
Again, not YET knowing a NEW language does not equate to a disability, a need for immediate interventions or lack of intellect and ability. All it requires is patience, compassion and a will to plan instruction accordingly
Everyday, an educator says the following about an
#emergent
#multilingual
student, “they cannot read in
#English
, have no language, don’t know anything, & need an intervention.” Colleagues, if we don’t read in
#Spanish
, are we language-less & in need of immediate remediation?

When you are tempted to say “the ELLs in my class just aren’t getting it”... remember how difficult the English language is... and why explicit vocabulary instruction is so necessary. Let’s stop blaming students and revisit how We, the adults, plan instruction and provide support
