This session is designed for first- and second-year dual language teachers to build a strong foundation in the core non-negotiables and instructional framework of a successful dual language classroom. Participants will explore what is expected across key areas, including environmental supports, language allocation, instructional strategies, and the long-term goals of dual language programming. The session will provide clarity on how to create classrooms that intentionally support biliteracy, language development, and rigorous content learning in both languages. Teachers will leave with practical tools, clear expectations to confidently implement the dual language model with integrity.
