In an ever-changing pluralistic society, it is essential to honor and celebrate cultural and linguistic diversity. This session provides an asset-based approach to multilingualism by integrating Social Emotional Learning (SEL) with effective language development strategies. By intentionally creating welcoming, inclusive environments, schools can accelerate language acquisition by providing Multilingual Learners (ML) with a strong sense of connection, support, and belonging.

Language acquisition is a process that typically takes 5-7 years. This session provides a multitude of knowledge and strategies for teachers who are supporting K-12 MLs from Newcomers, those who have recently arrived in the United States, all the way through to those who have exited the program and are on Monitor status. Join us to learn more about helping ML students thrive socially, emotionally, and academically.
