Great QSSSA training with our Kinder, 1st, and 2nd grade teachers! Together, we explored how QSSSA boosts engagement and language development, and I’m proud of our @SouthridgeES teachers for being open to the training and the learning. @Mrs_Retana

Loved catching up with my @VickeryES LAS teammate, Mr. Marines, and meeting a new friend, Dr. Cox @TECCeast, at our first LISD Brand Ambassador meeting last night! We walked away with tons of great info and enjoyed discovering what we have in common. #ONELISD

Loved learning more about supporting emergent bilinguals in today’s training with @ValentinaESL. Feeling inspired and excited to bring these ideas back to campus. @SouthridgeES @PetersColonyES

Co-presented on academic vocabulary today @SouthridgeES with my incredible LAS partner, Gaby. Loved the energy and conversations!

Awesome teams + parent orientations = a solid start to the year @SouthridgeES

I'm so thankful for my awesome @Southridge teammates who took the time to help us move into our new portable. #OneLISD #SREpride

Students in Ms. Pewterbaugh's 3rd grade class @SouthridgeES enjoyed discussing writing when she randomized pairing using some jingle bells.

These awesome teachers from @SouthridgeES were caught using one or more of the Big Rocks in their teaching practices. Way to go Mr. Chavez, Mrs. Johnston, and Ms. Barton-Macias @LisdBILESL

@LewisvilleISD hosted an amazing Hispanic Heritage event this past Thursday. The celebration of culture, food, and community was wonderful. It was an honor to be a part of this special night. #oneLISD @LISD_LAS @SouthridgeES @ADMiller

Absolutely loved attending @nancymotleyTRTW's Small Moves, Big Gains training today with my @LISD_LAS teammates. Hoping to use #smallmoves to help me make a big difference this year!

What an extraordinary day! Lunch with our 1st-year mentors & training with them on our respective campuses. A full lesson in leadership, encouragement, collaboration, and teamwork. Thxs🩵 @SHENIQUAJ0HNS0N for such a warm welcome to the LAS team! @LISD_LAS #LisdLAS #oneLASword

EXPECTATION VS REALITY WITH ELLs The path our students take to exit the ELL program is rarely smooth and straight. Don't beat yourself up on the bad days and don't become over-confident on the good ones ❤️

Some teachers are expressing panic bc they have a new group of students & feel overwhelmed and ill-prepared to serve them. Confidence plays a crucial role for both adults and children; believing in our ability to succeed is essential. During a recent conference, I discussed four strategies to enhance the success of newly arrived multilingual learners in content classrooms. #teaching #teachertips #teachingresources #Newcomers

Every teacher should be equipped & confident in teaching English Learners or Multilingual Learners because every teacher teaches English Learners or #Multilingual Learners.
