The document discusses a 7-year-old Spanish-speaking student who is developing English language skills. It outlines her academic strengths such as diligence and memorization, as well as challenges with comprehension, expression, and connecting ideas. The student's cultural background and home language of Spanish are assets. The Common Core Standards aim to prepare all students, including English language learners, but implementing them poses challenges requiring support strategies from teachers. These include collaboration, scaffolding, understanding language acquisition, and addressing individual student needs.
IB PYP brochure
The document summarizes the International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Programme (PYP), which is designed for students aged 3 to 12.

Key features of the PYP include its emphasis on inquiry-based learning, development of international-mindedness, and preparation for further IB programmes.
Multicultural Diversity and Broadening Teaching Perspectives
This document discusses the challenges that global teachers face in multicultural classrooms and various teacher exchange programs that aim to promote cultural understanding. It notes that classrooms are becoming more diverse in terms of students' ethnic backgrounds, languages, socioeconomic statuses, and experiences. To help teachers address this diversity, it recommends that they gain awareness of differences, avoid stereotyping students, get to know each student, and infuse multicultural materials. It then outlines several international teacher exchange programs between countries and their goals of transforming lives through cultural exchange, providing opportunities for teachers to learn from other environments, and developing global competencies.

Sea Animal Guide
This blog aims to teach English to 9-10 year old fourth grade students through lessons focused on animals. It will use content-based instruction, total physical response, and learner-centered methods to help students improve their English skills by describing, identifying, and differentiating between animals through the use of flashcards, games and videos centered around vertebrates, mammals, reptiles and fish.
Multigrade Program in Philippine Education
Multigrade schools were the first type of schools in North America and the Philippines. In the late 1800s, one-room schoolhouses were common in North America before single grade classrooms were organized. Similarly, the earliest schools in the Philippines were multigrade due to factors like remote locations, teacher shortages, and lack of funding. Multigrade classrooms combine two or more grade levels and are used where enrolment does not support single grade classes. They provide an opportunity for student-centered, collaborative learning. The Philippines refers to multigrade classrooms as "combination classes."
Building equality into the curriculum
The document outlines guidelines for ensuring lessons and learning environments are inclusive of students with diverse needs and backgrounds. Teachers should provide observers with learner profiles detailing any specific needs, make necessary adjustments to pace, materials and activities, and promote non-discrimination and active participation from all students. Progress should be regularly checked and supported in ways that meet individual student requirements.
Chapter 11 class notes
This document discusses strategies and considerations for teaching English language learners (ELLs). It emphasizes viewing ELLs as assets and combating deficit perspectives. Teachers should value students' home languages and cultures. Effective strategies include using small groups, hands-on materials, word walls, displaying student work, modeling language, and assessments to guide instruction. Digital tools like Epic, Newsela and Google Translate can help facilitate learning. Teachers' positive attitudes are crucial to student achievement. Home languages should not be seen as inferior to English.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
