TCTELA: Sustaining Resilience in Multilingual Learners and the Educators Who Serve Them

Presentation forthcoming for the Texas Council of Teachers of English Language Arts’ 57th Annual Conference on February 18-20, 2022.

Proposal Excerpt: Using the practices of Culturally Sustaining Pedagogies and Social-Emotional Learning, one can establish an instructional environment conducive to the academic and social excellence of Multilingual Learners. Through the implementation of high-yield interventions, this blending of two rising pedagogies can help Bilingual and ESL Educators bridge the equity gaps that exist for their students as well as themselves.

Updated on January 18, 2022 to reveal the aesthetic and proposal abstract.
