This book presents case studies of five schools engaged in radical
change in order to engage with children's home languages and
cultures in a more multilingual and inclusive way. Located around
the globe, from Hawaii to Kenya, the case studies are informed by
both researchers and professionals on the ground. While the schools
in question are each anchored in a unique context and situation,
they also have a common mission to see language diversity as a
resource, and a responsibility to embrace all the languages of
their pupils. The authors offer a rich resource for education
professionals and policymakers, including not only theoretical
insights but useful practical tips. This innovative volume will be
a helpful resource for educational professionals interested in
following a path of multilingualism as well as students and
scholars of second language acquisition, heritage languages and
cultures and multilingual educational policy.
