Learn to Walk in the Shoes of your Multilingual Learners
Over the past 10 years more than 90,000 multilingual shadowing projects have been conducted, with dramatic results, in California and across the country. In fact, in 2018, Education Trust-West acknowledged Shadowing as a "promising practice for honoring and leveraging English learner students' backgrounds, cultures, and home languages, as assets for math learning". This session will highlight how Shadowing can be used systemically as a promising practice in virtual or face-to-face classrooms regardless of the subject matter. Whether you’ve already been trained in the research-validated MLL shadowing process, or you’re just discovering its power now, we invite you to join us for this information packed session with lessons learned during the past ten years of implementation. Participants of the session may register to win a free copy of Ivannia Soto’s just-published second edition of Shadowing Multilingual Learners or a paid seat for CABE’s upcoming Shadowing professional development, which will be a 4-session series with Ivannia Soto.

Our Voices Matter
Language is a fundamental human right. Exercising the power of one’s inner voice is an opportunity to affirm identity and own our reality.

Through the years and throughout the world, we have witnessed the transformation of teachers, parents, and students when they dare to break silence and share their stories. The legacy of one’s life and work can only survive if it is told. In this session we will invite you to own the power of your oral and written voice.

Media and Second Language Development
This presentation demonstrates how the introduction of Chinese songs, comics and TV changed the perceptions and attitudes of a group of undeserved, linguistic and culturally diverse students towards the learning of Chinese.

A follow-up study conducted ten years later confirmed that the exposure to media is crucial element in the path to language acquisition. This path is pleasant, produces consistently positive results, turns students into independent, lifelong acquirers of Chinese and provides students opportunity to become citizens of the world.

Celebrating Multilingual Learner Identity Through Personal Narrative Instruction
Personal narrative assignments provide multilingual learners with unique opportunities to explore their heritage. The social isolation young second-language scholars have endured during virtual learning have left many in dire need of lessons that affirm their identity while advancing their academic communication skills. Well intentioned educators often underestimate the organizational and linguistic complexities of crafting an effective personal narrative for multilingual learners. Dr. Kinsella shares classroom-tested instructional routines and practical resources to implement a successful personal narrative writing unit that honors diversity and builds a more cohesive community of learners. Proven practices include well-designed discussion and writing prompts, small group discussion guides, writing models, accessible rubrics, and relevant vocabulary lessons.
