Secrets to Supporting Multilingual Learners

The Science of Reading Formula

With rapidly diversifying classes, teachers need effective strategies to help ALL students thrive - including the ones whose first language is something other than English. So today, I'm excited to share practical, research-based strategies that set up multilingual learners for success.

In this episode, you'll learn: 

  • Why writing in English is the last skill students will learn and what skills come before it
  • Simple ways to help students understand what you're saying before they learn English
  • The #1 tip for helping bilingual learners feel successful and excited to come to school each day
