Ms. Gonzalez hosted a warm, hands-on, and student-led workshop to help our dual language families support their children with upcoming tests. Parents and students practiced simple strategies families can use in any language to build confidence and problem-solving skills at home.
Highlights included:
- Bilingual support: tips and examples available in English and Spanish
- Test-ready routines: quick daily practice (10 minutes) that makes a difference
- Problem-solving talk: how to “think aloud” with your child without giving answers
- Resources to take home: A Padlet with games, question stems, and practice ideas
- Thank you, Ms. Gonzalez, and thank you to all the families and staff who came to teach and learn together.
