This book offers much-needed support to practitioners working with children from different language backgrounds in early years settings. The authors make theories on multilingual learning accessible to the reader, linking the ideas clearly with practice. The book contains many excellent suggestions for working with families to create a classroom environment that develops children's home languages as well as English and fosters educational success. Charmian Kenner, Senior Lecturer in Education, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK This volume speaks urgently and eloquently to educators and policy-makers about the potential of schools to enrich children and communities in contexts around the world where population mobility and linguistic diversity have become the norm.
In this engaging guide, the authors identify and disseminate good practice relating to language, culture and identity. They explore how children from a variety of cultural and linguistic backgrounds are supported through a number of pedagogical practices which are based on knowledge and understanding of the social and emotional development of young children. Topics covered include: - Perspectives on personal, social and emotional development - Maintaining home languages in early years settings - Supporting communication and oracy - Developing strategies for parental involvement Essential reading for those working with young children from a diverse range of cultural and linguistic backgrounds.
