Teach for Proficiency, No Matter the Circumstance. Workshop on Tues 7/8/25 in Braintree, MA. Many WL teachers strive to embrace the @actfl.bsky.social guidelines for proficiency; yet adopting this framework takes ⏰ & adjustment...

i forgot how effective a good scavenger hunt can be! #langchat #iteachwl #edsky #boston ☀️ 😆 🌱 i gave my students 10 min to do it as today’s brain break bc it’s sooo nice out. ChatGPT helped l w ideas. They came back so excited & laughing so hard (especially bc of the last one)!!

The sound of the plow going by isn’t as sweet when you’re a #teacher & it’s the weekend. Another snow day falls on a Sunday here in Boston, alas! ❄️ ⛄️

Snow day on a non school day shouldn’t be allowed. ❄️ #boston #snow #winterwonderland

@langchatpln.bsky.social Oldie but goodie 2 day. 1 student describes art on board, the other draws, switch. Pics were of protest art (end of Guernica unit). Today = Guerilla Girls, John & Yoko. 2morrow = Diego Rivera, etc. Protest art is cool. #edsky #artsined #langchat #ADI #CI #protestart

Happy New Year from Massachusetts ❤️

“Run a line around your think!” Love this advice for all our classrooms (art or otherwise) & keeping creativity alive in students of all ages #edblue #iteachfl #artsined #art #teaching #learning ✏️ 🎨 💡

#tbt came across this photo in a random email today: my old studio space right when I first got it in 2018! Closes up shop when I got pregnant. So much nostalgia in this pic. Miss rainy days making art in this space 🎨 ❤️ #artist #artined #norwoodspacecenter #joy

My Spanish 4H students’ #guernica inspired protest art is coming in! Fast fashion, police brutality, war…presentations next week, I can’t wait! #langchat #iteachwl #edusky #artsined @museoreinasofia.bsky.social

Got to hear from Dr lisa Damour (author of emotional lives of teens) at school. Biggest takeaway: school is supposed to be hard, like weight lifting! Got me thinking abt some places where I prob need to raise the bar higher for my students! #iteachwl #langchat #blueteach #teens #edchat #stress

Feel proud than an AI 🤖 considers me an arts enthused level upper in everyone’s fave language themed video game lololol. So fun! Everyone should try @blueskyroast.bsky.social & see their stats. Thanks @doriec.bsky.social for posting abt it! #langchat #artsined #iteachwl 🖼️ 🎨 🇪🇸 💃 ✏️

Some student work in progress, pick an issue that matters to you & paint a #guernica inspired cubist piece w acuarelas. Cultural comparison to follow! Lesson plan on allynnlodge.com/blog & inspired by @placidolanguage.bsky.social #langchat #artsined #iteachwl

Hi #langchat #adi #iteachWL Spanish teachers! I wanna do a unit on waste, specifically e-basura & fast fashion. Hoping generous curriculum designers like @marishawkins.bsky.social @placidolanguage.bsky.social @mmeblouwolff.bsky.social mite have something 2 share? Anyone done something like this?

#actfl takeaway: when u fully leave behind the daily grind of ur normal environment & open urself up to new ppl & perspectives, so much new inspiration comes! Highlight 4 me was convo had at dinner w these educators! @erina33.bsky.social @sotomayormantri.bsky.social @nicolehart.bsky.social #actfl24
