Ever wondered how to navigate a bilingual classroom without a designated bilingual staff? Join us, Melysa and Mikey, as we unwrap the day-to-day realities of managing an increasingly multilingual classroom. Our school has seen a boom in Spanish speaking students, and yet we are limited in bilingual staff. We'll share the rewards and challenges of this unique setting, the remarkable speed at which language is acquired in English-only environments, and the role tools like Novel Effect play in maintaining student engagement.

As we continue our journey to support multilingual children, we delve into the intricate dance between English and Spanish speaking children in the playground, the inventive methods teachers use to bridge the language gap, and the particular hurdles faced by children still learning to read in their native language. We believe in universal accessibility in teaching, but it's not without its hurdles. Let's discuss these obstacles, our real-life classroom dynamics, and practical tips for educators finding themselves in similar situations. This candid episode is filled with stories, insights, and tips you won't want to miss!
