Welcome to my collection of resources, experiences, and advice for launching and growing a quality two-way immersion bilingual program. I am deeply committed to bilingualism and biliteracy for every child and firmly believe that this approach is key for preparing traditionally underserved English Language Learners for short and long term academic, cognitive, and sociocultural success. My personal mission as an educator is to do everything I can to close the achievement gap and to provide every student with an excellent college prep education--particularly ELLs. If you're looking to launch something similar, or simply want ideas and resources for your bilingual classroom, I want to help in any way I can!

Literacy Curriculum Work

For the next week or so, I'm working on some Spanish curriculum for the district--exciting that there will be Spanish materials developed at the district level!  I'm posting the K - 1 HFW lists--organized into levels that children will progress through, some by the end of 1st grade, others by mid-2nd grade.

We found that our new text adoption's phonics scope and sequence in Kinder could do with some "accelerating" and needed a few additional skills/objectives, so I developed these simple revisions:
Kinder Phonics Accelerated (English & Spanish)

I also found these Bloom's Taxonomy resources in both Spanish & English--super helpful for unit and lesson planning!
