declamación de poesía (poetry recitation)
- Tradition in Spanish-speaking countries that involves accurate intonation and emotion; also an instructional strategy used to develop fluency. Teaching for Biliteracy by Karen Beeman and Cheryl Urow
dialogue journal
- Place for free writing. Students choose the topic and language and the teacher responds to the content, not the mechanics, often using a standard formula: comment, connection, question. Teaching for Biliteracy by Karen Beeman and Cheryl Urow
dictado/dictation
- Instructional strategy in which the teacher dictates words, sentences, or paragraphs that are familiar to the students, and the students write what the teacher is saying. The dictado is holistic; it teaches and develops spelling, punctuation, and syntax and grammar (and other word-study skills) in a way that is meaningful and comprehensive. Teaching for Biliteracy by Karen Beeman and Cheryl Urow
dual-language program
- Additive bilingual program using two languages for literacy and content instruction that aims for true biliteracy, bilingualism, and biculturalism for all students in the program. Students may include language-minority students (English language learners and two-language learners) and language-majority students, or language-language-minority students only.
