Building Bridges to Text Presentation Print E-mail

Speaker: Dr. Pauline Gibbons, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia

This presentation focuses on the teaching of reading in a second language, grounded in the theme of “high challenge, high support.” Dr. Gibbons discusses “before” and “during” reading activities that “scaffold up” English learners to read age-appropriate texts. These activities build bridges between what learners bring to a text and the text itself, while modeling processes and strategies that effective readers use as they read.

AMME Recomendations for ESEA Print E-mail
The AMME Executive Council (of which DLeNM and NMABE are active members) has developed a comprehensive set of recommendations for the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, per the request of Assistant Secretary Thelma Meléndez de Santa Ana, in order to bring a united voice for our multilingual/multicultural community to the table in Washington, DC.  

This document is currently being distributed and discussed with many in the Department of Education, and it will be a strong tool for negotiations as the ESEA is being reworked by Congress. We now have a strong platform from which to advocate for our multilingual/multicultural students, teachers and communities!
