Character Speaks: Inquiry, Agency, Translanguaging, Self-Care...and More!

I love podcasts—both as a listener and as a guest.  Recently, I had the pleasure of talking with Barbara Gruener on the Character Speaks podcast.  Barbara is a counselor, skills coach, and author with a beautiful heart.  It was an absolute joy to chat with her as we explored several significant concepts in education as well as passions that drive our hearts and actions.We talked about the powerful work of amplifying inquiry across reading and writing workshops, using the workshop model in host-country languages, empowering students and teachers with agency, honoring self-care, and more!I'd love for you to check it out below. Definitely share your comments, connections, and questions, too!
