    66. Bilingualism at Three (and a half!)

    Today’s conversation is the fourth in a series of check-ins with my good friend and bilingual mom, Samantha! We previously checked in when Samantha’s daughter was 12 months, 15 months, and 18 months old. (If you missed our previous conversations, you can go back and listen to them: they are ⁠episode 50⁠, ⁠episode 56⁠, and episode 59.) And then...I took a hiatus from the podcast! Now it's been two years since our last check-in, and Samantha's daughter is three and a half years old. She has been attending a Montessori school and speaking a lot, in both English and Italian. Listen in to my conversation with Samantha to hear about how bilingualism is going in their family now that her daughter is three.

    65. Should you be speaking only the minority language at home?

    In this episode of the Multilingual Montessori Podcast, we have a Broadway-themed episode! Jenna and Gabrielle are both working on Broadway shows this season, and Jenna is taking her kid to see the Broadway production of Frozen in Germany soon. Gabrielle is also thrilled to share that her new workshop, Parenting Multilingual Children, is now available! Check it out here. This month, we’re answering the question: Should you be speaking only the minority language at home? And does this answer change based on where you're located, or what the minority language is?

    60. Co-Teaching in Oaxaca, Mexico

    In this episode, I interview a former teaching team about their time working in a bilingual Montessori classroom together in Oaxaca, Mexico! Charlotte Peck is a 3-6 Montessori educator and certified Positive Discipline Parent & Early Childhood Educator. Charlotte has over 13 years of experience working in non-profit youth organizations, public and private education, and Dual Language Montessori programs in the U.S. and Mexico.  Guadalupe Tinoco, or Lupita, is a 3-6 Montessori educator living in Oaxaca, Mexico. Lupita has worked in Education for almost 20 years and now runs a own Montessori program in Oaxaca called Ambiente Montessori with a dear friend. Charlotte and Lupita met when they were the English and Spanish teachers, respectively, in a bilingual Montessori 3-6 classroom in Oaxaca, Mexico. During our conversation, they shared the structure of their bilingual classroom, what worked and what they needed to adjust as they went along, and what their co-teaching experiences were like. Charlotte also shares what life outside the classroom was like for her as an American living in Mexico, and Lupita shares what it has been like to start her own Montessori program.

    59. Bilingualism at 18 months: Everyone is "Nonni"

    Today’s conversation is the third in a series of check-ins with my good friend and new bilingual mom, Samantha. We previously checked in when Samantha’s daughter was 12 months and 15 months.  If you missed our first two conversations, you can go back and hear them (they are episode 50 and episode 56). We recorded this update back in the spring, when Samantha’s daughter was 18 months old, right after her family returned from a trip to Italy to visit her partner’s family. I hope you enjoy this 18-month check in with Samantha!
