Broken record: I’m not at ACTFL right now, but I wish I were. Regardless of whether you’re there or not, would you take a minute and let me know what you’d like to see as a Musicuentos presentation at ACTFL 2014 in San Antonio? Bethanie Carlson Drew, Laura Sexton, Kara Jacobs, and I are proposing a session on my popular student choice in homework project, but I’ll be proposing a separate one on my own. What do you want to talk about? Here’s what I’m considering:
Why and how to kick the vocabulary quiz
Powerful techniques to improve proficiency in novices (avoiding common mistakes)
Teaching authentic novels in a proficiency-based classroom
Keeping a proficiency focus in an AP classroom
