Some of the many languages spoken by pre-k & pre-1st students at @AISDMultilingue Summer School. Several proudly announced, “I speak ____ AND English.” Two said, “I speak ____, ____ and English.” Bilingualism is a superpower!

Names, names, names! Names are at the intersection of identity, culture & language. Getting names right respects the child and her family. @AISDMultilingue

Amazing to see these kids graduate! I taught a bunch of them during my first year at Glasgow Middle School back when they were level 1s and 2s in 6th grade. Then I moved up to 7th and 8th grade along with them. Had some of them twice! @justicehswolves @GlasgowMS #GMSbelieves
