 I’ve had the pleasure of co-writing with Mayuko Perkins, an amazing MLL specialist at an international school in Asia. We wrote about our reflections and the questions we need to be asking the systems that serve our multilingual learners. "The next brave step in cultivating a multilingual ecosystem is the act of shedding these biases and daring to try something that feels unfamiliar and perhaps scary. That’s the thing about radical dreaming, it invites us to build something that is new and founded on principles of diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice." Thank you to The International Educator for providing international educators the platform to share their insights.

Now more than ever translanguaging pedagogy is an act of love and resistance. I'm proud to share Translanguaging as an Act of Love and Resistance that I wrote for the Educator Collaborative's blog. "Yet, too often our schools and classrooms neglect this multilingual identity, even going as far to repress it, whether consciously or unconsciously. This is why it is an act of love to understand our students’ multilingual translanguaging processes and the pedagogical strategies that cultivate that power." I'd love to hear what you think. Reach out today to chat more about translanguaging.  I finally sat down and composed some extended thoughts on this idea I've been shouting across the rooftops (of social media) for years. Super grateful to the Educator Collaborative for all their continued support and inspiration. They push me to be a better educator.
