The Hartford Migrant team had 4 great days of learning at the National Migrant Conference (NASDME) in Portland, Oregon last week. Some highlights of the conference were hearing the inspiring speeches from the Al Lee Wright scholarship recipients, cultural performances, and workshops on a variety of topics including multilingual learners, parent engagement, and recruitment of migratory youth. One of the best sessions I attended was from a migrant team in Washington State who shared about their parent leadership team and strategies they implemented to reach and engage more families. One strategy that they used to increase their parent engagement was to host events that catered to the whole family (mothers/fathers/caretakers, siblings, etc) such as crafts, games or cooking. Another strategy that they implemented was that they had students give brief presentations about what they were learning in school or about different school programs and organizations at the beginning of their events. This gave opportunities to students to be leaders in the school community and the families wanted to come support their children who were presenting.
El equipo de Hartford Migrant tuvo 4 grandes días de aprendizaje en la Conferencia Nacional de Migrantes (NASDME) en Portland, Oregon, la semana pasada. Algunos aspectos destacados de la conferencia fueron escuchar los inspiradores discursos de los beneficiarios de la beca Al Lee Wright, presentaciones culturales y talleres sobre una variedad de temas que incluyen estudiantes multilingües, participación de los padres y reclutamiento de jóvenes migratorios. Una de las mejores sesiones a las que asistí fue la de un equipo de migrantes en el estado de Washington que compartió sobre su equipo de liderazgo de padres y las estrategias que implementaron para llegar e involucrar a más familias. Una estrategia que utilizaron para aumentar la participación de los padres fue organizar eventos dirigidos a toda la familia (madres, padres, cuidadores, hermanos, etc.), como manualidades, juegos o cocina. Otra estrategia que implementaron fue que los estudiantes hicieran presentaciones breves sobre lo que estaban aprendiendo en la escuela o sobre diferentes programas y organizaciones escolares al comienzo de sus eventos. Esto les dio oportunidades a los estudiantes de ser líderes en la comunidad escolar y las familias querían venir a apoyar a los niños que se presentaban.
