Welcome to the next episode of our video series on theory and practice. Today I will talk to you about what is known as the "Affective Filter" in language learning and how we can help students to lower it through SEL practices in the World Language classroom.

Today's post is brought to you by Myriam Grandjean, German teacher at Pleasant Hill Middle School, and the current SCFLTA Teacher of the Year. Myriam is sharing an online learning tool with you and we will follow up soon with part 2 of her video. Enjoy, and feel free to reach out to Myriam with any questions you might have [email protected]. Today we are kicking off a video series meant to help us get back to the basics of what second language acquisition actually is, and also to showcase teachers in the district as a learning tool for all of us. In the first video, Amanda and I talk about what we believe about second language acquisition in Lexington One. Essentially, these are our guiding principles. In the following videos we'll talk a little bit about theory and research, then we'll also share teacher created videos of implementation in the classroom. We hope you enjoy this series and will consider what you might like to share with the team as well. |
