This workshop equips educators with visible thinking routines and practical strategies to create an environment where students feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and ideas. Teachers will join on a picture of practice and hands-on activities to use thinking routines within project based learning. By using visible thinking routines, teachers can identify and address misconceptions, questions and reflections that lead to a deeper understanding of the content being studied.
In this session participants will learn about the ways to support and welcome multilingualism in classrooms of all ages (Grade 1 to12). We will share good practises of developing individual home languages in the classroom and ways how BBIS has embedded Home Language Studies in the curriculum. We will explore benefits of the Home Language Program for students' learning and identity. In the Q&A session, we will explore different ways of how Home Language Studies could be supported and developed in different schools and settings.
