Teaching for Biliteracy 4: Metalinguistic Awareness
Nov 6, 13, 20 and Dec 4
Each language has its own dedicated space, we use English ONLY for some instruction and Spanish ONLY for other instruction. We do not mix languages, although we value bilingualism and the skills students bring as bilinguals. So, where do we ensure that our students are putting their languages in contact? During moments of bilingual meta-linguistic awareness, and in Dual Language Classrooms, specifically in the BRIDGE.
Join all NEW DUAL Language Teachers November 6, 13, 20 and December 4th for Teaching for Biliteracy 4: Focus on Bilingual Metalinguistic Awareness.
In this session, participants will learn how and when to facilitate a Side by Side comparison of the phonology, morphology, syntax and grammar, and pragmatic use of each of their languages IN CONTACT.
These practices are used after the summative assessment of learning in the target language so that our students are able to learn the new labels in their partner language. This is how content transfers!
ALL NEW TEACHERS ARE SIGNED UP FOR THE PD-You do not need to sign up. Room numbers are being worked out now! Your trainers are the wonderful Alyssa Briester and Yazmin Duran!
