In the ever-evolving landscape of education, the role of the teacher extends far beyond traditional boundaries.
In episode 107 of the Equipping ELLs podcast, we are challenging you with one word to shape your new year! As educators, we wear multiple hats daily, transitioning from teacher to counkallax korkekiilto hylly blogspot nike daybreak uomo archivador cajonera carpetas colgantes custom baseball uniforms hängemattengestell preisvergleich cheap jerseys brandon aiyuk jersey estiti eleganti max mara nfl jersey sales detske lyžiarske nohavice 134 140 kilpi predam detske lyžiarske nohavice 134 140 kilpi predam vans chima ferguson pro 2 port royale black forty two skateboard shop mallas para hombre nike nike air max 90 air nike sneakers selor, translator, and more.
Amidst these roles, one word stands out: advocate.
This episode challenges us to embrace advocacy as a noun and a verb, a pivotal element in our identity as ELL teachers. The conversation spotlights the pressing need for advocacy in our education system, emphasizing the power of change that each of us holds. In upcoming episodes, host Beth Vaucher will aim to equip educators with practical strategies to advocate for themselves and their students, exploring hot topics from fostering equitable grading to dissecting mandated testing to championing bilingual education, and providing actionable steps to become confident advocates for multilingual learners.
In the trenches of education, it’s easy to succumb to the status quo, but this episode ignites a spark for change. The call to action is clear: advocacy is not just a choice; it’s a necessity. Without advocacy, the educational journey for both educators and students risks stagnation, leading to burnout, overlooked needs, and missed opportunities.
As educators, our passion for our multilingual learners is unparalleled. Episode 107 resonates with a poignant reminder: advocacy isn’t confined to grand gestures or Capitol Hill speeches; it starts within our classrooms. Small steps pave the way for significant change. Teacher, you need to recognize the power you have to influence change, whether it’s advocating for additional resources, support, or inclusive practices!
