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 for multilingual, racialized and minoritized learners across home, school and community contexts.
With up-to-date research and examples from diverse educational settings, it offers accessible introductions to key linguistic concepts while centering social issues throughout. Practical classroom applications are provided, with discussion questions and online resources for further exploration of topics.
Though primarily intended for future language teachers, this book expands the definition of educators to include school leadership, families and communities and recognises these groups’ contributions to language and literacy development. It equips educators with the necessary knowledge of languages for effective multilingual, multicultural and multimodal learning.
Laura Schall-Leckrone is Professor of TESOL and Bilingual Education in the Graduate School of Education at Lesley University, USA. Her research explores educational linguistics, educator preparation and linguistic ethnography. She sits on the Board of Directors of the North American Systemic Functional Linguistics Association.
