TheDictado

  • A method to teach content, conventions, grammar, and spelling in an integrated way. It involves having the teacher dictate a series of phrases or sentences to the students. The students and teacher then collaborate to create a corrected model of the focus text. Students amend their sentences using a two-color system to draw attention to errors. The same phrases or sentences are repeated throughout the week, giving students multiple opportunities to practice and learn the targeted content, conventions, grammar, and spelling. TheDictado is adapted from Latin American schools and provides multiple opportunities for within-language and cross-language metalinguistic development.

transitional bilingual education (TBE)

transitional bilingual program

  • Program that uses Spanish for a limited number of years while students learn English. Once students are considered to be English proficient, they are educated as monolingual English speakers and are assumed to have no further need of Spanish. This is a subtractive program that aims for English proficiency. It is often early exit, lasting for 3 years or less. Teaching for Biliteracy by Karen Beeman and Cheryl Urow
