Translanguaging.

So far, what you hear sounds great. But, at the same time, you have to admit that sometimes you aren’t exactly sure what the term even means. And you have questions. Lots of them.

Workshop can’t possibly align with your values as a PYP educator. And vice versa…Right? After all, one is all about inquiry, agency, and responsive teaching, and the other is all about prescribed processes and scripted terminology. Hmmm…which one is which?

Voice. Choice. Ownership. Who wouldn’t see the value in that? But while it’s one thing to value it; it’s another thing to truly honor and nurture it. Take a deep dive into practical ways to amplify agency in your classroom.

Feedback. You know it can be a game-changer when done well. But sometimes it feels like it goes in one ear and out the other. What does it mean to give feedback to feed forward? How might you empower your students to move beyond self-assessing to self-adjusting?
