Provides educators with the specialized knowledge they need to best support multilingual children.
This book prepares educators for the multilingual classroom, exploring the role of languages in learning across home, school and community contexts.
With up-to-date research and examples from varied K-12 educational and community settings, it offers accessible introductions to key linguistic concepts while centering social and societal considerations throughout. Practical classroom applications are provided, with discussion questions and online resources for further exploration of topics.
Though primarily intended for aspiring and practicing language teachers, this book expands the definition of educators to include families, communities, and school leaders and recognizes their contributions to language and literacy development. It equips educators with the necessary knowledge of languages for effective multilingual and multimodal learning.
Laura Schall-Leckrone is Professor of TESOL and Bilingual Education in the Graduate School of Education at Lesley University, USA.
