How Language Variations Shape Literacy

In this episode, Julie Washington, a professor at the University of California, Irvine, who specializes in the intersection of language and literacy, breaks down the power of language variations, like African American English, and how understanding them can transform how we teach reading.
Key Takeaways:

✅ Students need to navigate both their home dialect and academic language
✅ Educators must set high expectations while embracing linguistic diversity
Julie shares research-backed insights and practical strategies to help educators create inclusive, effective literacy instruction. Tune in and learn how to make a real impact!
