About this episode

Welcome to Creative Kindergarten’s first episode of Book Club! I am so excited to embark on this amazing professional development with you and read an amazing book that will further my understanding of teaching English learners. In this first episode, I discuss the first chapter of the book: “Teaching Literacy Skills to English Learners”, and share my experiences as a language learner growing up in Québec.

I hope you join the professional conversations about the book on the forum, and share your experiences and your ‘why’: https://creativekindergartenblog.com/forum-2/?frame-nonce=a712f1a029
