Listening to the fabulous Dr. Elsa Cardenas-Hagan at the The Reading League Summit in San Diego. #trlsummit2024 #TRLCalifornia
Heritage literacy instruction boosts left hemisphere development for language and reciprocally supports bilingual oral and written language skills. ~ Ioulia Kovelman #bilingualismisnotaGodgivengift #TRLSummit2024
Excited to listen to the experts on the science of reading with ELs and emergent bilinguals in mind. #TRLSummit2024 Claudia Ardon-Diaz #IamVUSD
Excited (& grateful) to be here to soak in all the learning! #TRLSummit2024
Agenda for today 🤓: thereadingleague.org/trl-summit/
Decoding is NOT sufficient but necessary. We still need comprehension. Visalia Unified School District #TRLSummit2024 Californians Together CA Department of Education Tulare County Office of Education
#TRLSummit2024 - Takeaway 10 - Divergence comes before convergence, especially in education where teaching and policy decisions have diverse impacts on diverse students. The Joint Statement is a step forward, but even when we share goals in education, there's disagreement on
#TRLSummit2024 - Takeaway 4 - Assessment panel emphasized that to the extent feasible, schools should assess language and literacy in all languages students have access to. Plus the push for using Conceptually-Scoring when assessing EL/EBs in both English and a home language.
#TRLSummit2024 Takeaway 5 - What should be assessed in each language based on language exposure/language of instruction AND what is the impact of NOT using conceptually-scored assessment by #DaniBasaraba Response could be “table” or “mesa” and the assessment reveals students are
Very quick turnaround Thursday night and Friday. Getting home from the DR and right back out to San Diego for #trlsummit2024 . Great information on Science of Reading and multi-lingual learners. #WatchUsWork #IPSschools Dr. Michelle Jackson Lela Simmons
Our final panel at #TRLSummit2024 called leaders to scale this work responsibly, to stop working in silos, and to attend to the many cogs that contribute to a high-functioning system. 'We can do this. We are going to do this. What is it that you need to get there?'- Melody Ilk
'When looking at activity in the brain, there is no difference in bilinguals between reading in the first language and the second language. Similar circuits in the brain are activated, regardless of language.” Stanislas Dehaene The Reading League #TRLSummit2024
Dr Stanislas Dahaene from NeuroSpin France is our keynote speaker, setting the stage for neuroscience and research on reading #IamVUSD #TRLSummit2024 Claudia Ardon-Diaz Dennis Dyck
Our first panel reveals additional research from neuroscience, with this remarkable finding: reading instruction changes the brain. Dr. Ioulia Kovelman shares: 'Teachers are what make the brain go. These changes don't happen by themselves. It requires instruction.' #TRLSummit2024
Last week, Californians Together and NCEL were proud to participate in #TRLSummit2024 . We reaffirmed our commitment to the principles of our joint statement w/The Reading League. Here are our takeaways from the summit. 🧵
#TRLSummit2024 Takeaway 9 - The Burden cannot be on the teachers -- make information easily accessible encourage students to make connections between their home language and English with the generous Ellen Stubbe Kester from
Bilinguistics
#TRLSummit2024 Takeaway 7 - Translating Research to Classroom Practices with #DrLaurieOlsen and
Jeremy Miciak WE cannot forgt the principles of #Reciprocity #Simultaneity #KnowledgeBuilding #NationalCommitteeForEffectiveLiteracy
Learning to read increases the connection among parts of the brain. It is fascinating to notice the growth of connection #color in a child's brain while attending school. Stanislas Dehaene Me 💭 This is a great reason to send children to school in an early age. #TRLSummit2024
