This session is designed for dual language leaders, coaches, PLC leaderss, and curriculum specialists to deepen their practice in backward planning with a clear focus on biliteracy and student language output. Participants will examine current biliteracy planning templates and engage in hands-on work to backward plan an upcoming unit, centering language development alongside content goals. The session emphasizes “big picture” planning that prioritizes meaningful, comprehensible student output in both languages. Attendees will also explore how to effectively support and lead PLCs in implementing this planning process within their buildings, ensuring alignment to the core goals of dual language programming.
