Explain how you interpret the policy in your own words, how it is oriented by Ruiz language orientations, and how you would adapt it in your classroom (create your own version of that policy).  en-us 2023-06-05 05:14:18 UTC 2023-06-08 19:10:23 UTC hello@padlet.com mmaldonado318 https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2614401948 The Policy:

*Students are able to use their native language and translations within groups. 
My Interpretation: 
*Gaining different perspectives and experiences from students. So that we can revise future lessons to differentiate learning.
Ruiz's Orientation:
*Using language as a resource for all students to gain multiple languages.]]> 2023-06-08 14:54:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618392368 https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618548750 The Policy: 
Speaking-
Level 4 Expanding: "Give speeches and oral reports"
Our Interpretation: 
Students can present in a small group/individually outside of the classroom if whole group is overbearing
Ruiz's Orientation: 
Resource- using language as a tool, so students can best express themselves. Helping build up the ability and confidence with speaking in front of the class, and using it as a tool.]]> 2023-06-08 18:33:35 UTC https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618548750 gstrohl27 https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618551732 The Policy: 
* Students can write assignments in their own native language, and then the class/small group will be able to support the student in translating the assignment into English (e.g. they can help with wording, idioms, etc.)
My Interpretation:
* Allowing students to aid others in editing/translating their assignments into English contributes to the notion that Language learning is a social / collaborative process.
Ruiz's Orientation: 
* Using language as a resource allows students to build on what they already know, as well as help other students with the knowledge they are in the process of gaining.]]> 2023-06-08 18:38:58 UTC https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618551732 https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618554061 Policy (Translanguaging in Dynamic Multilingualism):
(1) Being respectful and encouraging language output of student's home cultures and language.
(2) Students to demonstrate mastery of specific standards being measured, rather than mastery of the English language (ex: thinking about answering a math question in native language)

Our Interpretation:
- Exposing students to different languages through guest speakers of different cultures and languages to come speak or read to students in their own language.

- Allowing and encouraging students to use their home languages for a creative project.
Describing how the language influences their project and worldview.

Ruiz's Orientation:
Using language as a right and a resource for all students to gain multiple cultural language exposure.]]> 2023-06-08 18:43:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618554061 https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618557191 Our Policy:
*Students will be able to use alternative expression methods (ex. visual, verbal, etc.) where appropriate.
Our Interpretation:
*Allowing differentiation of responses will allow the emergent bilingual student to explore various methods of expressing their knowledge.
Ruiz's Orientation:
*Using language is a right for students to be able to express themselves without restrictions based on their learning style. ]]> 2023-06-08 18:48:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mmaldonado318/90pvl37d8rivl7fs/wish/2618557191
