A middle school dual language Spanish teacher struggles to teach a class with wide disparities in student fluency (from zero Spanish to zero English) using ELA module themes, and has no structured approach to differentiate instruction for mixed-level bilingual learners.

Workarounds Described

• looking at their ELA modules and trying to base lessons off of themes/skills that they are learning but using Spanish texts and cultural information
• for students with no Spanish understanding I am required to provide English translations

Implied Software Gaps

• Lesson planning tool that automatically maps ELA themes to Spanish dual language objectives and generates differentiated materials
• Translation scaffolding feature that provides controlled English support without hindering Spanish acquisition

BilingualLessonFlow

BilingualLessonFlow is a curriculum alignment and differentiation platform for dual language teachers. It automatically maps ELA module themes to Spanish language objectives and generates tiered lesson materials (texts, activities, assessments) for students at beginner, intermediate, and advanced Spanish proficiency, reducing teacher prep time and ensuring all students are challenged appropriately.
