Problem: Our video series, Teaching Bilinguals Even When You're Not One, looks at the theme of how to work with your MLL students when you don't speak their home language. This week our text suggests that teachers should understand something about their MLL students home language literacy skills. Write on this topic: assessing students' literacy in their home language. Do you have experience with this in a classroom or other setting? Suppose there is no translation or test for you to see if a student new to the school or your class has home language literacy skills? What suggestions are made in our text for assessing students literacy? See the discussion preceding figure 8.5 to think through this issue.
