Ta very much for bringing the multilingual library to Stirling, Scotland! I enjoyed a shared reading of a colourful Korean book, a sweet Welsh-English book and discovering the Cree script! @MultilingLondon @hmking_linguist 📚🎒

Love this - and while we are at it, can we make those libraries multilingual, please?

The Power of Picture Books 📚
Picture books ignite curiosity and build a love for reading!
Through vibrant visuals, they help kids understand stories, learn new words, and enjoy reading together.
A perfect start to lifelong reading! ❤️ #bookedug #childrenslibrary

The best advocates for using a Multilingual approach in schools are the children themselves! (Please watch the trailer below)
Multilingual children bring so much to their communities.
@KensingtonSch @LearnTapscott @soofia_amin have been transforming opportunities for our children.
Watch the trailer here and the full video on our YouTube channel

Fantastic to see this report in print & to have contributed in a small way. I look forward to the changes it will bring (like more emphasis on spoken language in the NC, greater space for dialogue in classrooms, better teacher training on oracy) 1/2
We need to talk about oracy—what it is, why it matters, and why it matters now, in particular.
We are proud to share the final report from The Oracy Education Commission, including our findings and recommendations.
We need to talk👇

What does it mean to be #EAL?
In this interview, Marijke Rivers-Andries and Dr Esther Bettney Heidt discuss how we can make a school more inclusive.
Changing the narrative about "EAL" is so important!

NEW STUDY shows, yet again, that schoolchildren who speak more than one languages tend to perform better, including in subjects such as English.
Speak all the languages you can to your child(ren).

"When mothers consider heritage language maintenance their responsibility, they often believe language loss reflects poorly on their choices and practices as mothers" (Gudowska, 2024, p.7)

09-10 Sept: watch the UN International Literacy Day event, hosted in Cameroon, online 👇🏻. Theme: "Promoting multilingual education: Literacy for mutual understanding and peace". Inc. a global conference, the UNESCO International Literacy Prizes awards & more! #Multilingualism
Multilingualism deepens connections and preserves diverse cultures and knowledge. Yet, 40% of the global population lacks education in a language they understand.
This #LiteracyDay, support multilingual education for a more inclusive world.

Our ‘Multilingual Cafe’ has been mentioned in the Newham magazine. So glad to see multilingualism growing momentum in @NewhamLondon
