Do you think that this is a productive way to help bilingual students? Do you believe that as teachers we should continue to teach students that bilingualism is two separate language systems, or that it is one fluid system like translanguaging suggests? How would you implement your philosophy in the classroom?http://www.cuny-nysieb.org/translanguaging-resources/translanguaging-guides/If you are having trouble finding the video or guide, here are the direct links.You tube link of Videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_AnGU8jy4o&list=PL72WgjD2ZG70k6MEOjQ8i_lbCJTQ1IsrW&index=2Link to documenthttp://www.cuny-nysieb.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Translanguaging-Guide-March-2013.pdf
