Home School Communication for Multilingual learners and English language learners: In our endeavor to build a strong and strategic partnership we periodically send text messages using translate app, copy past. We do this messaging to foster a more close partnership. This strategy has proven successful in my middle school program as a lot of families are newly arrived and from non English speaking countries.

Dear Parent,

Each year, in January students in our English learner program take the WIDA ACCESS test for English Language Learners. The test measures academic English language proficiency for students learning English in our school and throughout our state.

Attached to this letter is an Individual Student Report. This report provides information about test results for your child. This information is for you to review and keep.

Teachers in our school use this information to help them make decisions about instruction for your child. Teachers also use these test scores to monitor the progress your child makes toward English proficiency.

Please contact me if you have questions about the ACCESS for ELLs test.  You might want to know:

- How do teachers use test results?

- What are the English goals for my child?

- In addition to English, what else does my child learn in school?

-What linguistic scaffolds are used to help your child access grade level content?

-As a new student to our school what role does the grade teacher, counselor, and ELL teacher occupy in building a supportive community

-

Sincerely,

I speak some Spanish, but when I have speakers of multiple languages comunication can become very complicated.

Dear Parents,

I hope all is well with each of you. Today math tests are coming home. Please sign and return these. In addition, we have the Wildlife Center of Long Island coming on Friday with live animals for a program with our kids. We are very excited. Please remind your child that wild animals are easily scared and to be on their best behavior. Thank you and have a great day!

In a classroom of diverse learners, it can be difficult to give each student timely and specific feedback on their sentence structure, grammar, and vocabulary usage. This delay can slow their language acquisition and confidence.

How AI can help: An AI tool can act as a 24/7 writing assistant. Students can draft a sentence or paragraph and receive instant, non-judgmental feedback on grammatical accuracy, word choice, and sentence clarity. This allows them to self-correct and understand patterns in their errors, turning a solitary task into an interactive learning experience. Crucially, this frees up the teacher's time to focus on higher-order feedback, like idea development and creativity, rather than just correcting basic errors.

There are so many now and they are available on all of the different platforms that we use that I just rather ask google. I know AI is helpful but I use sparingly at the moment.

I usually use just write in English. Class dojo has a translation button that they are able to press. If I am sending a specific message to a Spanish speaking parent, I will message them directly. I don't like using google translate but I will if I am rushed. Grade 2 all subjects.

# data[].attributes.body
When I give verbal instruction, I would love for my MLL students to be able to understand me the same way that my Enlgish speaking students do. I don't like to relay on my Spanish-speaking students to translate for me becasue it's not their job. Plus they are trying to learn the curriculum just like everyone else and I feel as though I'm taking them away from that learning by asking them to translate things for me to other students. If AI could help with that, I would be golden.

I just had a chat with our paraeducator about this today! She was mentioning that ChatGPT was more robust and effective than Google Translate!

Tomorrow we are having a show what you know about math, more specifically the measuring.

Dear IEP Team Members,

As we prepare for the upcoming IEP meeting scheduled for this [date and location], I am writing to share the draft documents for our team's preliminary review.

REMINDER: A professional interpreter will be present to facilitate communication. To ensure a smooth and effective conversation, please remember to speak directly to the team member you are addressing, rather than to the interpreter.

I have attached the following for your consideration:

Meeting Agenda: An outline of topics to help structure our discussion.

Present Levels of Academic Achievement and Functional Performance (PLAAFP): A summary of the student's current academic and functional progress, including strengths, parent/student input, and recent assessment data.

Teacher Feedback: Input from the student's teachers detailing performance and engagement across core classes.

Draft Proposed Annual Goals: Proposed goals for the coming year.

Draft Proposed Post-Secondary & Transition Goals: Draft goals designed to support the transition beyond high school, based on the student's expressed interests.

Our goal in sharing these drafts is to ensure we are all prepared for a focused and productive discussion. Your perspective is invaluable to this process, and we want to ensure the planning reflects the student's own aspirations. Please remember these documents are drafts, and we look forward to discussing any questions, suggestions, or revisions during our meeting.

Thank you for your partnership in supporting the student.

I use Google Translate to translate whole documents for my MLL students. For most of my verbal communication, I usually have a Spanish-speaking student in my classroom who is willing to translate for me. In addition, my curriculum has both an English and Spanish version of everything for the students and teachers. We also use Schoology and it has a translation feature built-in.

I found from my student that chat GPT translation in Arabic is more accurate than Google Translate. Apparently written Arabic and spoken Arabic are significantly different, and chat GPT uses spoken Arabic.

Dear Families,

I hope this email finds you and yours well. I am emailing you to let you know that your child is in my Computer Class at Page Middle School. We have been able to start strong and students are getting in a wonderful routine.

We spend some of each day typing and learning proper typing technique. We are not focused on speed at this point, rather memorizing the keyboard through accurate typing. Students are expected to type 15 minutes per day, about 1 hour each week. They will be graded on how much time they spend typing for each quarter. We will be keeping track of their growth in WPM and Accuracy. Many have already improved their skills in just one month.

It is my privilege to be a part of your child's educational journey. Please find the attached copy of the course syllabus. This explains the classroom expectations and my tardy, late/incomplete work policy. I wanted to invite all of you to reach out to me with questions or concerns about your child.

Kind Regards,

Please read with your child for 20 minutes every evening. This will inspire in your child the love of reading and will help him/her become a fluent reader, improving his/her reading level. You and your child can read together the book sent home, until your child is able to read it on his/her own. You can also read a book in your home language, as your child will learn to transfer reading skills to books in English. I can also send books in your home language if you need some.

One challenge I face is when I am in whole group instruction, I find it difficult to translate so my students can follow along and keep up. I also am looking for help with understanding where exactly my students are in their level of comprehension.

# data[].attributes.body
I currently use Google translate on my phone. I have used word translate as well. On Schoology I have at the language settings to help students read Schoology tabs for navigation within the platform but it doesn’t translate any of the documents I put in for the students reference.
