Over the past few years bilingualism has come to be seen not as a
hindrance, but as an asset which, properly nurtured, will benefit
children's linguistic awareness, cultural sensitivity and cognitive
functioning. Bilingualism in the Primary School gives primary
teachers a window on the experience of the bilingual children in
their care. It helps them to make the most of what the children and
their parents have to offer, giving those children a good start in
the National Curriculum. The book covers three main areas: first,
the ways in which bilingual children in school can learn English
and at the same time have their first languages incorporated
naturally into the curriculum; second, various approaches to the
assessment of oral language (including children's mother tongue)
and finally the bilingual experience of children, teachers and
parents within the wider community. Many of the contributors to the
book are themselves bilingual and are thus able to understand the
children's experience from within, but they are also particularly
careful to show monolingual teachers how to make use of children's
mother tongue experience.
