Bridging the Multilingual Reading World

Bilingual in America

Dr. Rocio del Castillo and Dr. Julia Cloat are changing the multilingual dual language landscape. Together, they have co-authored their first book, Teaching Reading in Spanish: A Linguistically Authentic Framework for Emerging Multilinguals. In addition, they have co-founded Via Educational Consulting, whose mission is to provide practical and equitable solutions to schools and districts on the path toward culturally and linguistically responsive education. As educational leaders, they are inspirational and 'just on time' in addressing the needs of our dual language teachers.
