Biliteracy Units In Action Natalie Garcia, Beth Villalobos Bilingual Education
We’ll explore practical applications of the Biliteracy Unit Framework (Beeman & Urow, 2012), integrating oracy, background knowledge, comprehension, writing, and foundational skills and the culminating performance task. We will showcase how BeGLAD strategies have elevated oral language development and how The Bridge at is used for cross linguistic transfer. Participants will leave equipped with new strategies to implement and a deeper understanding of how the BUF looks in daily lessons.
