Hello, WinkWorld Readers,
A few of you are as excited about translanguaging, as I. In this post, I am including some resources which have come to me.
First, my friend and colleague, Ruthie Wienk, of South Dakota State University will be sharing selected videos, which she has created for a linguistics class, which she teaches for Black Hills Special Services (BHSS)/Technology in Education (TIE). Thank you to Dr. Joe Hauge for permission to share these videos, and a special thanks to Ruthie. I will begin posting Ruthie’s videos in a few days. And, no, she is not related to me. In this class, she uses the following text:
Freeman, D. E., & Freeman, Y. S. (2014). Essential linguistics: What teachers need to know to teach reading, ESL, spelling, phonics, and grammar 2nd ed. Portsmouth, NH: Heinemann.
Second:
What Is Translanguaging? by Francois Grosjean and Ofelia García.
Third:
Translanguaging: Practice Brief for Educators, from Joanna Yip & Ofelia García, Ph.D. of The Graduate Center, City University of New York. In addition, a quick search on Google will lead to many other resources.
Fourth:
TESOL will be providing a webinar, Wednesday, October 19, 2016, 10:30 to 12:00 EST from Tatyana Kleyn, Kate Menken, and Maite Sanchez.
Registration deadline, October 16, 2016

And, I love this one posted below. I do know where it came from, but I believe I found it on Chris Faltis’ Facebook pages. Thanks for sharing, Chris.

Your post made me think about a professor from Montclair whom I had met while working at the NJDOE. After several failed Google searches I finally came up with the right query and it led me to his Ning: http://translingualism.ning.com/profile/2i8oql0qpf89h
