Emergent Bilingual teacher Manuel Perez put a video together featuring our VES EB students and an activity students did at the beginning of the year. During the "All About Me" activity, students shared what being bilingual means to them personally. On the video the students talk about their goals, the struggles they face, and ways teacher can support their growth in the classroom. Mr. Perez said the video captures the students' voices, honesty, and courage as they express their journeys in their own words. He added we often don't truly know what our EB students are feeling, thinking, or experiencing until we take the time to hear it directly from them. To view the video, click this link:
