RESOURCE NETWORK 

WHO: A free MABE member benefit to members in good standing (with no outstanding balances). Members can register at any time to receive access to all network resources. If you are not a member, join us to register. 

WHAT: This year's Special Topic Network will focus on resources available to Dual Language Bilingual Education (DLBE) programs and educators as identified by MABE members. Learn about five topics: MABE's Member’s Resource Library, Holistic Bilingualism, Performance Assessments, Translanguaging & Language Objectives, and Backwards Design & Language Planning. There are two components to this Resource Network: 

  • INFOGRAPHIC: Gain visual resources to support staff and help you advocate for your program. The infographic will be sent to registrants prior to the virtual meeting. 
  • COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE: Join a virtual meeting to explore and practice the resource in-depth. This presentation will include an interactive space for questions and answers. 

WHEN: Session descriptions coming soon.
