The first ever NABE Slow Institute will be a virtual event offering sessions on topics relevant to teaching in times of COVID-19.
Slow events allow for deeper engagement between the speaker and a smaller audience as well as encourage attendees to further their thoughts and ideas on the subject of the presentation.
The goal of this event is to help teachers overcome the new challenges they will face as they return to school under the “new normal” of social distancing and remote teaching by providing strategies, resources and other useful information to help them confidently provide support and educational equity to their ELs.
There will be two 1-hour sessions each week over the course of ten weeks, starting August 20, 2020. Each session will consist of a 45-minute presentation followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. Sessions will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:00 PM CST.
Registration will open August 14th, 2020.

This webinar will provide an overview of a free online course to prepare for back-to-school blended learning with
ready to use lesson plans co-created by classroom teachers in grades K-12. This course will guide you through the
pedagogy and applications that engage your students so they understand the importance of name, self-identity
and the positive impact they can make on their learning community in a blended learning, distance learning, or
traditional face-to-face environment. Technology tools to support the pedagogy will also be introduced.

Dear Members and Friends of NABE,
As we all know, our society's current situation has greatly impacted the way we teach our children. For many, the latest "distance learning" has a steep learning curve with challenges of equitable and accessible education for our bilingual, dual language, and emergent bilingual learners. Moreover, teachers have become overwhelmed by the plethora of information, resources, and materials that are being pushed out in social media and beyond. In an effort to support you while we all transition into this new way of educating, informing, and empowering, NABE's will be seeking, sharing and updating:
