Here you will find some PowerPoint presentations that I have done as staff development for different districts including my own or for parent meetings that I have about four times a year. Additionally, you will find other presentations, which are even more impressive, by my own 8-9 year old students, wow!
Teacher presentations
This is a presentation that I use to explain what bilingual education is to teachers and administrators. Using the Native Language to Accelerate English Acquisition.
This is a presentation that I use to help parents with parenting skills. However, please do not think that I am an expert on this. When I my daughter was born, I subscribed to several parenting magazines. What I found in them, I wrote down and this formed the basis of the presentation. This is directed to Spanish speaking parents in my school so the presentation is in Spanish. Ocho reglas para ser buenos padres.
Here is another presentation I put together for my parent meetings. This presentation deals with how to foster reading skills at home. Crear a un estudiante a quien le interesa la lectura
