The importance of routines in an Elementary Dual Language classroom (Examples of the evolution from K to 5th grade)

Sunday March 9, 2025 2:10pm - 2:50pm EDT

Routines can be a great ally for teachers. They help educators teach, and students acquire content and skills, while integrating the cultural essence that is so important in dual-language teaching. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate and realize how routines may evolve from the early levels of education to the transition into middle school. The presenters will share bits of their experience so that other professionals can benefit from them and incorporate them into their classrooms.
