orallanguage hashtag performance

#OralLanguage promotes the importance of spoken communication skills. It encourages sharing tips, techniques, and experiences to enhance verbal expression, storytelling, conversation, and language development for all ages and backgrounds.
To all the teachers I offended this past year—I meant it with love and a challenge to do better.  Let’s make 2025 the year we step up our student engagement and language supports, so I don’t have to be that nagging old lady. 😉 #duallanguageteacherproblems #duallanguage  #newduallanguageteacher #biliteracy #oracy #orallanguage #newduallanguageteacher #maestrabilingüe
When your multilingual students answer in fragments, you miss the chance to: 
✨Strengthen their oral language skills through purposeful practice
✨Reinforce vocabulary in context to build biliteracy
✨Engage them in meaningful dialogue that deepens comprehension Expecting complete sentences every time helps students develop: ✅Stronger oracy skills ✅Clearer communication in two languages ✅A solid foundation for reading and writing biliteracy Looking for practical ideas that actually work in your dual language classroom?  👆🏽You’ll want to follow for more of this!  #duallanguageteacher #duallanguage #duallanguageteacherproblems #maestrabilingüe #biliteracy #palantemember #orallanguage #palantemembership #marysolbilingual #multilingualstudents #biliteracyteacher #bilingualclassroom
If your students don’t have anything to say, how can we expect them to have anything to write? 🤔 Oracy isn’t just about talking; it’s the explicit instruction of vocabulary, dialogue and sentence structure and is the foundation for biliteracy.  When students engage in purposeful conversations, they: 
✏️ Organize their thoughts.
✏️ Hear and model complete sentences.
✏️ Build vocabulary and ideas they can use in their writing. If writing feels like pulling teeth in your classroom, the solution might not be more writing. It’s more talking. Inside the Pa'Lante Membership, I share simple oracy-building activities that will get your students talking and writing in ways that don’t require much prep and will stick. 💬 Ready to help your students find their voice and strengthen their biliteracy skills?

It’s a natural feeling to want to translate to your students but when over used, can do more harm than good.  🚨We need to fight the urge…  Here’s the thing:
🚫 Translating creates dependency.
🚫 Translating doesn’t build oracy or biliteracy.
🚫 Translating wastes valuable instructional time because you have to say things twice!   🚫Translating gives students the green light to tune you out so they can wait for you to give  Instead, focus on strategies that actually develop language:
✅ Purposeful bridging between languages.
✅ Engaging students in oracy activities to build confidence and fluency.
✅ Use strategies like el dictado to connect literacy in both languages. ✅Provide students with word banks, preview vocabulary, sentence stems, repetition, images Dual language instruction isn’t about saying the same thing twice—it’s about making language accessible so they can grow into biliterate humans.
