April 1: Want to stay connected with the World Language teacher family across the country?
Here's the best webinar I've watched on online learning done by top notch K-12 world language teachers
With the onset of the COVID-19 virus, World Language classes have shifted swiftly to a "remote environment." Teachers across the country are facing enormous changes in how they connect with their students and carry on language learning practices that promote proficiency in the language. This webinar will feature guest speakers who will discuss strategies that work across age groups and levels and address how teachers are responding to the current situation and practicing self-care. Guest Presenters include: Rebecca Aubrey, T.J. Troche, Meredith White and Julie Speno. Host: Dawn Samples, Director for MORE Professional Learning at Avant.
