#LangChat is dedicated to the discussion of topics associated with issues and trends in world language instruction and learning. Educators, administrators, learners, and aficionados of world languages are encouraged to participate and share their experiences and input on various topics such as new ways to teach vocabulary, using music in the language classroom, and making standards-based grading valid. This chat is also unique in that it brings together language educators worldwide and from different contexts (elementary, secondary, higher education, etc.) and languages.
I'll start: my exploratory Spanish #middles are LOVING El Capibara Con Botas #langchat even kids who haven't really been able to attend my class are engaged.
If any langchatters are around, share something good that happened this week just to get us all pumped up. I moved from 21% of my Fr 2s meeting prof writing target to 53% meeting the target since last month’s check! #langchat
Search this hashtag #langchat there’s a huge group of language teachers that communicate about language acquisition. You will probably find some to follow
Lance finished his 1st #FVR book today & I watched his disbelief at the ending of the story. He said "You've got to be kidding! Is there a sequel?!" Soooo excited that the answer was yes! @klasekastellano#langchat#LeerConLibertad
My middle grades turned Capibara into an exploration of Ecuador's geography and it was GREAT. It was my first success at building a whole (semester) unit around one novel! #langchat

Oh! I almost forgot! I now have the privilege of working directly w/our EL ss twice a week. I can't wait to use CI strategies to help them!!! #langchat
For me, it depends on where the description comes from. Someone describing themself is personal identity. A generic, historical, or cultural description is beauty & aesthetics.
