Thoughts on the Teaching Math to Multilingual Learners book by https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26 What interests you AND which chapters are you interested in studying first en-us 2022-03-17 20:48:27 UTC 2022-04-05 12:50:56 UTC hello@padlet.com Ch. 2-J. Amador AMS https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2108176069 Positioning students was intriguing to me because I first thought it was phyisically putting them in groups, partners, etc. However, as I skimmed through, I see how our inadvertent comments and actions may put the multi-lingual student in a position of oppression. I am interested in reading more about this together!]]> 2022-03-22 18:32:11 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2108176069 FMS What caught my eye- I like the purple sections in the book (transcripts, stop and think, and try it). I think this will be very beneficial to all of us. https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2110646767 I agree with the chapters that were suggested to start our discussions with (2, 4, and 9).]]> 2022-03-23 22:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2110646767 What caught my attention in chapter four was the use of peer learning to enhance multilingual students. Especially when the class is filled predominantly with struggling students with academic gaps due to language. https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2111010126 2022-03-24 03:11:52 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2111010126 Ch 2 is positioning the students in groups and assigning job positions or job tasks for them to build communication and collaboration. palafoxm https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114478424 2022-03-25 21:45:38 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114478424 Chapter 2 was very interesting because it will position the Multilingual learner in a role that will benefit him or her as a leader and be able to communicate and collaborate with each other. https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114479114 2022-03-25 21:46:48 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114479114 In chapter 4 what caught my attention was the strategies for making sure they have the tools to make the communication and collaboration happen but with guidance. For example the practice compliments, pay attention to how they are paired, making sure that the unity is there. palafoxm https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114483777 Listening and not interrupting when others speak
respectfully disagreeing with others ideas
encouraging peers to participate
use of body language.

For example on pp129 the conversation between the teacher and student. What also caught my attention was page 135. palafoxm https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114494527 the strategies - eliciting, modeling, revoicing, and recognizing and valuing multilingual learners responses.]]> 2022-03-25 22:14:47 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2114494527 chapter 3 shows how student participation is crucial for learning. It reminded me of " Esto si lo puedo hacer" https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2117331035 2022-03-28 14:44:56 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2117331035 Out of the suggested chapters, the one that interests me the most is Chapter 9. Communication is extreme important, especially with multilingual learners in the classroom. https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2117587484 Even though Chapter 3 was not suggested, it really caught my attention as well. ]]> 2022-03-28 16:45:48 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2117587484 Chapter 9 - Ricardo Pacheco (FMS) https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2117736410 I particularly found interest in Chapter 9 because it dealt with communication. Communication is the foundation of our relationship with our students, and therefore it is directly attached to student outcomes. Open communication with our students about their own academic progress holds everyone accountable for monitoring their growth. These are perfect opportunities to reflect on our daily lessons as teachers and an opportunity for a student to address any immediate concerns. Communication between all stake holders in imperative for student growth. ]]> 2022-03-28 18:01:01 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2117736410 https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2119852981 Very similar to Kagan strategies, only ell grouping.]]> 2022-03-29 17:25:55 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2119852981 Chapter nine interests me. Connecting academic language to mathematical representations is important to effectively communicate and make connections, especially for our multilingual learners. Students must be given ample opportunities to make connections between representations and academic language. ssapien https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2127511790 2022-04-03 21:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2127511790 One of the chapters that caught my interest was position multilingual learners as classroom leaders. I think most of the time we forget how much our students really know but lack the language. Another chapter was chapter 10 fostering a culture of writing in the mathematics classroom. https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2130587084 2022-04-05 12:50:56 UTC https://padlet.com/speranzo/2d8si0ns067dps26/wish/2130587084
