In 3rd grade, we are doing a class Duolingo classroom. Students should already be enrolled and able to participate. To gain access to your child's login information, feel free to contact me for help. Students should have received log in information this past week, and they will get a copy of their username and password to go home with them.

This year, we will be using a tool called Duolingo for Schools. Duolingo is a free app designed to help students learn languages. Because Duolingo can be downloaded to any smartphone, and even used on a web browser on computers, it means that students will have access to additional practice in their language at their fingertips!

On my end, Duolingo for Schools allows me to track the work that the students are doing, to ensure I can give them the most help throughout their learning journey. Additionally, I can create assignments that are tailored specifically to what will best meet the needs of each student. This means that every minute your students spend on Duolingo will be spent working at their “just-right” level, rather than on a classwide assignment.

Duolingo’s platform is set up with certain restrictions to ensure student safety. For example, I am able to control whether the students are allowed to engage with mature vocabulary or have profiles that can be seen by other users.

Please consider supporting your child at home by encouraging them to spend time with Duolingo. Encourage them to maintain their Streak by ensuring that they log time daily, if only just fifteen minutes! You can also help them stay motivated by providing reminders, or even practicing by signing up and utilizing a free Duolingo account yourself! Together, we can ensure that they maximize their learning, both inside and outside of the classroom.

What are Integrative Performance Assessments?

# data[].attributes.body
Integrated Performance Assessment is a classroom-based performance assessment model developed by ACTFL that can be used for evaluating student’s communication skills in the three modes of communication (Interpretive, Presentational, Interpersonal) identified in the World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages (2015).

The World-Readiness Standards incorporate the Standards for Foreign Language Learning: Preparing for the 21st Century (1996), and Standards for Foreign Language Learning in the 21st Century (2006).
