As you start a new school year, remember the importance of positive reinforcement. Recognizing small achievements in language progress can make a difference. A simple "¡Bien hecho!" or "Très bien!" can work wonders for motivation.

🌟 New idea for building community in our schools! 🌟

I created postcards for teachers to leave positive feedback when visiting colleagues’ classrooms. 📝💌 The purpose isn’t evaluative—just supportive. Imagine dropping by, leaving a kind note, and spreading encouragement and positive vibes.

Our Back to School, Members Only Week continues with this great activity to get to know your students. Our member was inspired to design a jersey-type shirt, since the WC is coming soon! During the 1st week of school, this teacher made sure that they eased their way back into learning and teaching.

LEARN THEIR NAMES! One of the most important things to do at the start of a new school year is to learn how to correctly pronounce your students' names.

Check out what one of our members does to make sure her students help her how to correctly pronounce their names.
