If you’ve ever taught two languages in the same classroom, you know the STRUGGLE IS REAL.
Teaching two sets of students in two different languages is already challenging enough, but doing it in the same classroom on alternating days adds a whole new level of crazy!
Switching between French and English can make it difficult to stay organized and keep lessons cohesive, and I was feeling overwhelmed by the constant shift in focus.
Although it can feel like too much at times, over the last 2 years, I have learned the key that has made all the difference.
The Key: Streamlining
To overcome this, I realized the importance of streamlining my resources. That’s why I started creating materials that work in both French and English. Having resources that seamlessly transition between languages has been a game-changer for me! This approach not only saves me time but also ensures that my students get the same high-quality, hands-on learning experience—no matter which language we’re using that day.
