The California State Board of Education adopted the California English Learner Roadmap in July 2017. The My Name, My Identity Initiative is a partnership effort between the National Association for Bilingual Education and the Santa Clara County Office of Education (SCCOE).
Below you will find sample lesson plans and resources.
The My Name, My Identity Initiative encourages schools to designate a week as “Getting to Know Our Names Week” to develop a culture of respect, build relationships, and create a positive climate in the school community. As a strategy to build awareness in the local community, students and teachers can present their learning of the week at school, parent and district board meetings. Personalized badges and pledges created are encouraged to be shared via Twitter @mynamemyid_; #mynamemyid or Facebook at http://bit.ly/mynmyid.
