Best practices for educators

- Enable the Spanish Language setting for students in K–5 Math who are Spanish-dominant or are in dual language or bilingual programs.
- Model how to use the translation and text-to-speech tools, especially for younger learners (K–2).
- Use downloadable worksheets and journaling pages (available in both English and Spanish) for offline support and gradual release of responsibility.
How to enable and access language supports
- Educators and administrators must enable language supports on each student's profile in the Product Portal. For step-by-step instructions, see how to edit student accounts and settings.
- Once enabled, students will see globe (translation) and headphone (TTS) icons inside lessons.
- Students select their desired language from the drop-down menu for translations, or highlight text to use text-to-speech.
