On the Season 2 debut of Lost Cultures: Living Legacies , we travel to Bermuda, an Atlantic island whose history spans centuries and continents. Once uninhabited, Bermuda became a vital stop in transatlantic trade, a maritime stronghold, and a cultural crossroads shaped by African, European, Caribbean, and Native American influences. Guests Dr. Kristy Warren and Dr. Edward Harris trace its transformation from an uninhabited island to a strategic outpost shaped by shipwrecks, colonization, the transatlantic slave trade, and the rise and fall of empires. Plus, former Director of Tourism Gary Phillips shares the story of the Gombey tradition, a vibrant performance art rooted in resistance, migration, and cultural fusion. Together, they reveal how Bermuda’s layered past continues to shape its people, culture, and identity today.

In this episode of Growing With Proficiency, The Podcast, we’re diving into the essentials of comprehensible input (CI) for intermediate and upper-level Spanish learners. Teaching these levels can feel overwhelming when expectations are high, proficiency levels vary, and the curriculum demands keep piling up! But, as always, no estamos solos – we’re in this together!

In this first part of our three-part series on CI in the upper levels, I’m tackling two major challenges:

Realistic Expectations: Language acquisition takes time, and today we’re talking about what it means to set achievable goals based on ACTFL guidelines, focusing on how much exposure our students realistically get.
Scaffolding for Mixed Levels: In any upper-level class, student proficiency can vary widely. We’ll look at strategies to scaffold input and make CI accessible to everyone, from novice-high to intermediate-mid students.

Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll discuss the impact of curriculum overload and the challenges of messy student output. Plus, in our upcoming Spanish episode, we’ll be joined by a special guest to talk about CI strategies for AP classes!

I’d love to hear your questions for Part 3 of this series. Email me at claudia@growingwithproficiency.com or message me on Instagram at @claudiamelliott or in our free Facebook group, Growing with CI.

Re-Release Episode 84: One of the Most Downloaded Episodes of Growing With Proficiency — The Power of Reading with Dr. Stephen Krashen 38:31

3 hours ago38:31

38:31

Send us a text In a season when we just can't do it all , having clarity about what truly impacts our students’ proficiency journey is key. And this episode? It's the one you’ll want to replay over and over again. This conversation with Dr. Stephen Krashen is one of the most downloaded episodes of the podcast—and for good reason. Dr. Krashen, the architect of the comprehensible input hypothesis, shares the powerful role of reading for pleasure in language acquisition and how simple, self-selected books can create big results. This episode is a reminder of what really moves the needle in our classes—and what we can let go of. ☕ Grab your cafecito and press play. This one is a must-listen (again). 💡 Big Takeaways: Reading is the most powerful tool for acquisition —it builds vocabulary, grammar, writing, and even empathy. Easy and self-selected reading works —comic books, picture books, and leveled readers count (and they stick). Grammar doesn’t create accuracy—input does —and output naturally emerges from rich, repeated input. Students gain more from reading than formal study —it boosts knowledge in history, science, and beyond. Heritage learners thrive through pleasure reading —it’s how they stay connected to and expand their language. Good input doesn’t need to be perfect —even “bad” or imperfect input helps learners grow.
