“Share My Lesson, Free Online Resource for English Teachers”

Content: Share My Lesson is an innovative online community that provides free access to educators’ best ideas and resources, whenever and wherever teachers need them. SML has a wide range of materials, covering all K-12 subjects. Given the multi-lingual nature of many American schools, it is a particularly rich resource for English language learning materials. This webinar demonstrates how to access SML materials and download them, emphasizing ELL material for Spanish-speaking students.    

Presenter: Rebecca Palacios; Retired Dual Immersion Preschool Teacher from Zavala Elementary School, Corpus Christi (Texas) American Federation of Teachers. During her career, Palacios mostly taught low-income Hispanic children. She is a National Board Certified teacher with a doctorate in curriculum and instruction with an emphasis on early childhood education. Palacios is fluent in Spanish. As a child, she attended Zavala Elementary School, where she later taught dual immersion preschool. Her decision to become a bilingual teacher at her alma mater was intentional: “I wanted to go back to the community that had supported me as a young child.”
