Everything you need to create a high-trust, high-achieving learning
environment for multilingual students We have never known more than
we do now about teaching multilingual students — nevertheless, we
teeter on the edge of retreating to old-think practices. The next
generation depends upon our getting this right, and this spare,
salient guide helps ensure we do. Kids Come in All Languages
provides teachers and leaders with all they need to design
high-quality curriculum to support multilingual learners. With this
book, learn to: Create a low-anxiety, high-expectation classroom
climate that gives multilingual students access to engaging
grade-level content Plan clear, cohesive lessons and tasks that
motivate students to produce language, use critical thinking
skills, and access complex texts Offer ample time for student-led
talk that ramps up knowledge and amps up a sense of belonging Use
heterogeneous, flexible grouping so children acquiring English
don’t stall out in fixed-mindset, below-grade level groups And
much more Teachers act like tributaries, helping learners access a
wider stream of knowledge, and catch the swift current of wanting
to learn. It’s time to envision this expansiveness for
multilingual students. It’s time to design learning experiences
with optimism for their futures.
The curiosity-stirring, can-do handbook for building inclusive
cultures With one click we can make our camera lens switch from
portrait to landscape, so why can’t we find a simple way to
broaden our perspectives on equity? Because human beings are wildly
complex, for one thing. But this potent guide simplifies, providing
concrete techniques for becoming expansive educators capable of
engaging every student. Chapter assets include: Compelling research
to support why it’s urgent we embrace foundational fairness—and
why even subtle words can have massive effects on students’ sense
of potential Questions and prompts that help you build inclusive
thinking into your expectations of students, your feedback,
grading, and approaches to discipline Activities, discussion
frames, and debate structures that support students’ exploration
of complex topics Ideas for engaging staff, leadership, family, and
the community in ways that reveal strength Social justice work is
not "other;" it’s not extra. It’s student agency work. It’s
what keeps so many of us educators up at night, worried about why
some of our learners aren’t engaged. With this book, they will be
engaged, because they will know you believe in their abilities, and
now know how to show that every day.
