Think about your own language experiences and reflect on the questions that follow. Share your responses with your trainer, coach, or administrator. 

1. How would you describe your own language experiences? What languages do you know or speak well? What languages have you learned or tried to learn? What was that experience like for you?

    

2. What languages do children or families in your program or classroom speak? In what ways does language influence your interactions with children or youth?

    
3. What does your program or classroom currently do to recognize or support languages other than English?
