The role of teaching reading, spelling, and writing in two languages at primary school has become more important over the last few years. Current research therefore needs to answer more specific questions than ever before and, e.g., explore the challenges of developing literacy skills in a foreign language, appropriate teaching approaches and innovative assessment procedures. This volume features contributions on theoretical and methodological aspects, teachers’ diagnostic skills and issues in educational policy. Researchers from Germany, Great Britain, Portugal, and Switzerland share their findings with the objective of improving foreign language teacher education at university level and primary school classrooms of English, French and Spanish as a foreign language.
Stefanie Frisch is Professor of English as a foreign language at the University of Wuppertal. Her research interests focus on teaching young learners, including bilingual education.
Jutta Rymarczyk is Professor of English as a foreign language at Heidelberg University of Education. Her current interests include research into early biliteracy.
