She\u2019ll entertain attendees with how she overcame cultural obstacles and mindsets to attend U.C. Berkeley as a four-year scholarship Air Force ROTC cadet. The speaker will share proof points of the many advantages of being a bilingual American with stories from her careers spanning global military aviation service (including a U.S. Embassy post in South America) and corporate marketing roles at both a German telecommunications company and an Israeli renewable energy equipment company. Tiscare\u00f1o-Sato\u2019s strategies will encourage teachers to spark and fulfill the ambitions of our Future Bilingual Professionals (FBPs) \u2013 the speaker\u2019s forward-looking description of those we refer to today as ELL students.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abMs. Tiscare\u00f1o-Sato&#8217;s academic achievements and bilingual professional accomplishments in a variety of global industries brought our conference theme to life and jumpstarted our <em>Adelante<\/em>! Conference,\u00bb said Patricia Nu\u00f1ez, President of AAABE who invited the speaker to keynote last spring in Austin. \u00abShe spoke to educators\u2019 hearts, reminding them how critically important their work is educating our FBPs and a peek into what\u2019s possible.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>As a social entrepreneur, publisher and sought-after speaker, Ms. Tiscare\u00f1o-Sato is using her multilingual, multicultural, global life experiences to create award-winning, bilingual literature for our nation&#8217;s diverse school-aged populations who are now the majority in K-12 classrooms. Her mission is to positively showcase the contributions of Latino Americans in the USA, an increasingly-important mission as news reports air of Americans publically harassing people who speak Spanish &#8211; the first European language spoken on this continent.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m delighted to join educators committed to developing MORE bilingual Americans,\u201d stated the keynote speaker. \u201cMy hope is that journalists will spotlight the important work of educators like those in the Dual Language program at Galena Park ISD, in lieu of giving airtime and ink to a few monolingual people antagonizing my fellow Americans speaking Spanish, my first language learned at home as the daughter of Mexican immigrants. Plus, I\u2019m thrilled that in addition to delivering the keynote, I\u2019ll be facilitating a workshop at the Summer Academy titled <em>How to Create Award-Winning Bilingual Children\u2019s Books: A Workshop for Teachers.<\/em> I\u2019m part of a national movement to scale up the amount of children\u2019s literature published in Spanish and in English, written by bilingual Americans. I find this timing just perfect.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Graciela\u2019s latest children\u2019s book won First Place in the \u00abMost Inspirational Children&#8217;s Picture Book &#8211; Bilingual\u00bb category at the recent International Latino Book Awards and was featured in <em>USA Today<\/em>. It\u2019s the second book in this unique, bilingual picture book series featuring women in uniform. Every teacher attending the Dual Language Summer Academy will receive both bilingual books to share with students in Galena Park ISD classrooms.<\/p>\n<p>Today Gracefully Global Group is also announcing unique <strong>NEW <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gracefullyglobal.com\/commerce\/?page_id=577\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Virtual Author Visit Packages<\/strong><\/a> in Spanish and English. This digital video course + physical books combo will help teachers share this veteran\u2019s inspirational daughter-of-immigrants biography and military aviation service highlights with their students before reading the books in elementary school classrooms globally. In the course, students will hear directly from the author as if she\u2019s in the room, learn about the airplanes on which she trained and served and get a sense of the awesome global adventures she enjoyed as a military aviator. The latter led her to write the Captain Mama series, the first-ever children\u2019s picture book series in Spanish and English about women in the military. Ms. Tiscare\u00f1o-Sato has authored the third book in the series which will publish in approximately 18 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Media<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Media assets are <\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.captainmama.com\/index.php?page=media-assets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>HERE<\/strong><\/a><strong>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>About Gracefully Global Group LLC:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.gracefullyglobal.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Gracefully Global Group LLC<\/strong><\/a> is the premiere independent publisher of positive media images and case studies from the Latino community in book, eBook and live presentation formats.
