Thursday, September 12, 2019, 4:30pm to 6:00pm. To mark the United Nations International Year of Indigenous Languages, participate in a discussion about revitalizing languages and creating strong multilingual identities. Arrive early and visit the Peabody Museum. Educators enter free-of-charge with a K–12 Massachusetts teacher ID.*
How can we retain the strength of our identities when our language is attacked, denied, or just lost through lack of practice and resources? How can we ensure that culturally and linguistically sustainable practices are embedded in our teaching, parenting, and social activities? Spend time with our presenters, watch short animations, view children's books, and discuss ways to support multicultural communities using these tools.
