The volume editors of this work cast an eye towards the future,
where US schools and society will be increasingly populated by
racially and ethnically diverse groups, more so than any other
period in the country's history. Rachel Grant examines the
practices and methods in the teaching of second language learners.
Fred Genesee and Elena Nicoladis discuss bilingualism in preschool
children. S. Jim Campos describes and analyses a preschool
programme for Latino children. Celia Genishi and Margaret Borrego
Brainard review the ways in which the language capacities of
bilingual children are tested by teachers and institutions. Howard
L. Smith and Paul E. Heckman look at a playground fight which
becomes emblematic of the clashes between Spanish-dominant and
English-dominant children. George P. Knight, Martha E. Bernal and
Gustavo Carlo compare and contrast socialisation and individual
behaviour among Mexican-American children. Francisco A. Villarruel,
David R. Imig and Marjorie J. Kostelnick look at different family
structures in culturally diverse families and their impact on
children. Karen Shu-Minutoli also looks at the family: the
characteristics, styles, and support needed in care of disabled,
diverse children. Patricia A. Edwards, Kathleen L. Fear and
Margaret A. Gallego examine parents' roles in the pursuit of fair
education for their children, and how they can affect curriculum.
In the last two chapters, Olivia N. Saracho and Bernard Spodek
discuss teacher preparation in early childhood education programmes
for diverse chilren, and in conclusion, summarise the challenges
that face us regarding the issue of linguistic and cultural
diversity.
