Translation Creation

At SISD, we are so proud to be a bilingual school. We value our multicultural student body and love hearing the plethora of languages in our hallways everyday.

In order to support our students, we use many strategies to help our students grow in all languages. There are so many wonderful apps that promote language acquisition and provide translation services. We are also lucky that all of the Microsoft 365 products provide instant translation on a selection of a document or the entire document. While we want our students to be independent in many languages, this is a wonderful tool that can help them along the way.

Please follow the following steps to use the translation feature on Word (this also works on OneNote):

Click on "Review" on the top ribbon
Click on "Translate"
Select "Translate Selection" or "Translate Document"
You can select your language from the bar on the right

Happy translating!

Journaling is a wonderful way for us to reflect upon our day - we can think over what went well, what didn't, and how we could change things in the future. Journaling can also help us see progress towards our goals or if we need to alter our behaviours. Especially for children (but us adults, too!), journaling can improve communication skills. Journaling can prompt students to reflect on their emotions and give them new ways to say how they feel. But like anything, journaling isn't one size fits all. There are many different types of journaling. From making quick lists, to creating beautiful illustrations, there's something for everyone. Here are some guides on journaling: How to start a bu...
