Overview
- Support bilingual students as they engage with and comprehend complex content and texts
- Provide opportunities for bilingual students to develop linguistic practices for academic contexts
- Make space for students’ bilingualism and ways of understanding
- Support bilingual students’ socioemotional development and bilingual identities
García, Ibarra Johnson, and Seltzer illustrate their translanguaging pedagogy in action with examples from three very different contexts: a 5th-grade dual-language bilingual class taught by a bilingual teacher in New Mexico, an 11th-grade English-medium social studies class serving a predominantly Latino classroom taught by an English monolingual teacher in New York, and a 7th-grade ESL teacher working with students from a variety of linguistic and cultural backgrounds in California. Teachers learn to use translanguaging for instruction and assessment to meet and exceed content and language development standards in their classrooms.
