Explore the vital role oral language plays in supporting literacy development for linguistically diverse students. Drawing on the latest research in the science of reading, we will discuss how language acquisition principles intersect with literacy instruction. Participants will discover practical strategies — including the use of language frames and culturally responsive pedagogy — to create inclusive classrooms that celebrate linguistic diversity. By fostering an asset mindset, educators can recognize and leverage the rich linguistic resources that Multilingual Learners offer.
