Just happened upon this great article from @IndwellingLang: 4 Myths about Comprehensible Input. It's a great read! indwellinglanguage.com/4-myths-about-… @IndwellingLang #langchat

#inspiredproficiency “I think people misunderstand CI as a fun technique when it’s really the bedrock of language acquisition.” -⁦@SenorFisherDice⁩ itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ins…

Great reminders about how we can reduce student anxiety and thereby improve student performance in language classes. #earlylang #langchat

@miprofeAP @actfl Thank you so much for your response.

@lucijgalvan @actfl See the I CAN statements for each level or the @actfl Performance Descriptors. Approximately: a 3 on AP is Intermediate-Mid, a 4 is I-M/I-High range and a 5 is I-H/Advanced-Low range. actfl.org/publications/g…

Thank you @profefariasLHS for your session: Proficiency Levels Aren’t Just for Teachers, How to Involve Students too! Standards based grading, teaching to proficiency, self-assessment, growth mindset and more all in a nice tidy package with a bow 🎁 #actfl18

LOVED @maestraibrahim presentation: CI for the Little Guy. Amazing adaptations to make multiple CI activities accessible to our earliest learners. #actfl18 #earlylang

Paul Sandrock sharing some great AAPPL assessment knowledge @actfl18 Mind blown and it’s only 11am.

Thank you @Cassandraglynn @beth_wassell @pamwesely for gifting the #wordsandactions attendees the 2nd Ed. of Words and Actions: Teaching Languages Through the Lens of Social Justice. Can't wait to dive in! #actfl18

@lmschauer Is it sapo?

Playing a game from Peru with 3rd graders today. Culture. Real-life language. Student-led. Physical activity. And lots of smiles and laughs.

@MmeMORLEY @ProfeMarshal I would love to see one. That sounds like a very engaging hook.

@profeashley Love the term “warm demander”

@spsmith45 I’ll check it out. Thank you for sharing.

Q2: When BVP says: "language is too abstract and complex to teach," to me it means we are free from direct grammar instruction. We are free to engage students in in topics of their interest using sheltered vocabulary composed of high utility structures. #langbook
