Learning In-between Languages and Cultures–with Poetry and Picture Books!
Juntos, we will explore (and create!) rich examples of bi/multilingual, bi/multicultural, and translanguaging texts and what they reveal about bi/multilingualness. There will be book making, storytelling, writing, connection and community–and lots of resources to inspire and guide your practice. Come learn in-between languages and cultures–whether you consider yourself bi/multilingual or not, and no matter the program type, content areas, or ages you teach, you are welcome!
Target Audience: K-12 educators
