In this discussion and presentation, learn how to use multicultural dual language Spanish-English texts to promote early literacy skills and students to bring their full selves into the classroom. Attendees will come away with ready-to-implement strategies for guided reading and shared reading, bilingual and dual language programs, and reluctant or struggling readers. Participants will receive tools, lesson plans, and a bibliography of dual language children's literature to honor students identities and the world around them.
