Catherine McDougall spearheading #translanguaging practices, #EAL team sharing practices through our #ShowAndTell, #STUCO reps meeting led by Ashley Sawyer & co ~ gosh I 💙my school community! SSIS @cuny_katie #studentvoice #equity #multilingualism #weareSSIS

Learning about how all our languages handle nouns and verbs in G3! Do we change the nouns if they are plural? Do verbs conjugate? Not always! 12 languages represented in 3SA. #translanguaging Ceci Gomez-Galvez (she.her.ella) Tatiana Kladova (she/her, она) SSIS

Celebration of Ss whole selves in our dragon scales project for International Week SSIS! HS/MS Ss arranging scales that EVERY student SSIS made into a cohesive whole dragon! #DiversityandInclusion #equity #DEI #internationalteacher #internationalschools

Ceci Gomez-Galvez (she.her.ella) SSIS We have Broken the record with the largest group to meet in Ho Chi Minh City, D7 #PubPDAsia

A1: It all comes down to equitable access - how r we (the humans) creating opportunities for our Ss to interact w AI tools? Are we encouraging curiosity, helping them to balance & set boundaries, allowing for exploration, modeling how we, like them, are learning too #PubPDAsia

A1: AI is here. Let's teach our students and COLLEAGUES hiw to use it for good. The restvwill come in time (prob shorter than we expect!) #PubPDAsia

A2: Early learners are at an advantage. They are going to grow up in a society grappling with the bounds of AI integration. However they will accept it as a fait accompli! Much like gen z accepted the internet and boomers accepted tv.#PubPDAsia

Great advice for any change. #BREATHE

Inquiry learning will be so important!

#translanguaging during SSIS ES Learning Journeys! Reflecting in home languages can strengthen emotional bonds and expand academic vocab. HUGE TY to the amazing student and teacher translators for helping create this reflection space! #eal #esol #internationalteacher

Friday's grade 3 SSIS question- do Ss agree or disagree with the teacher opinion and how strongly? Take a look at that distribution! Very strong opinions here! But can they back it up with reasons? We shall see....in nezt week's episode of opinion writing workshop! Melanie Sylvester (she/her)

The best quote on ChatGPT in education I’ve heard so far - “Getting a class to engage with AI and think critically about what it generates could make teaching feel more human, she says, “rather than asking students to write and perform like robots.” technologyreview.com/2023/04/06/107…

Scientific research + fiber arts? Yes please! These are gorgeous!

Can confirm it is HOT HOT HOT in HCMC. With the heat and humidity I basically swim to work each morning. 🔥🔥🔥 bbc.com/news/world-asi…

Second installment of SSIS G3 opinion writing workshop. Reasons support thier opinions. Students were sad that I didn't consider their sadness about losing recess to be a legitimate reason. BWAHAHAHAHA Ceci Gomez-Galvez (she.her.ella) Tatiana Kladova (she/her, она) Melanie Sylvester (she/her)

Last day SSIS 💙🐲🎉🎊

Another school year with incredible students and colleagues, especially the G3 team. Catherine McDougall’s final Friday question: “What skills and attitudes have you learned in G3 that will help you in G4?” @cuny_katie SSIS

Look at the amazing work of my EAL team! Ceci Gomez-Galvez (she.her.ella) is an inspiring leader who encourages us to reach!
