Code Switching: Helping Multilingual Learners Tap Into Their Superpower
Unlike their monolingual peers, multilingual students often have two languages with two sets of words to choose from to describe experiences and feelings, often using the word that fits best, regardless of language.
When students are encouraged to use both languages to learn, they are more likely to build strong connections, develop comprehension skills, and attach emotions that lead to building empathy. Escamilla’s Holistic Biliteracy Framework supports literacy lessons in Spanish and English that are connected to one another without being redundant.
Mo Darnall, Learning A-Z National Curriculum Consultant, digs into this framework, provides insight, and shares instructional strategies you can implement in your classroom tomorrow.
