Download or read book Latino Children Learning English written by Guadalupe Valdes and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2010-11-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely and incisive book examines the ways in which English language proficiencies develop in newly arrived immigrant students. Beginning by describing the challenges faced by children who currently attend segregated schools in many parts of the country, the authors offer a detailed account of the developing English language proficiencies of K–3 children from one after-school intervention program. Using the experiences of these children as a lens, the authors debunk commonly held views of young children as rapid and effortless learners of new languages. Essential reading for classroom teachers, students, researchers, and policymakers, this authoritative book: Offers principles for designing an integrated practice for educating English language learners. Describes interactions between volunteer “English Buddies” and ELL children to highlight ways in which children begin to comprehend and produce English. Includes examples of materials and activities that can be used with young ELL children to engage them in new-language interactions. Analyzes the effectiveness of current practices designed to accelerate the second language acquisition process.
Download or read book Hispanics and the Future of America written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2006-02-23 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hispanics and the Future of America presents details of the complex story of a population that varies in many dimensions, including national origin, immigration status, and generation. The papers in this volume draw on a wide variety of data sources to describe the contours of this population, from the perspectives of history, demography, geography, education, family, employment, economic well-being, health, and political engagement. They provide a rich source of information for researchers, policy makers, and others who want to better understand the fast-growing and diverse population that we call "Hispanic." The current period is a critical one for getting a better understanding of how Hispanics are being shaped by the U.S. experience. This will, in turn, affect the United States and the contours of the Hispanic future remain uncertain. The uncertainties include such issues as whether Hispanics, especially immigrants, improve their educational attainment and fluency in English and thereby improve their economic position; whether growing numbers of foreign-born Hispanics become citizens and achieve empowerment at the ballot box and through elected office; whether impending health problems are successfully averted; and whether Hispanics' geographic dispersal accelerates their spatial and social integration. The papers in this volume provide invaluable information to explore these issues.
Download or read book Meeting the Needs of Latino Toddlers and Preschoolers with Disabilities written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few studies have examined in detail the ways in which bilingual service providers work with families of young Latino children with disabilities to include their families' perspectives in designing and adapting services. This instrumental collective case study explored the views and practices of three bilingual early intervention and preschool service providers, one Anglo, one Puerto Rican, and one Argentine-American. Each was asked to select two children or families who differed so greatly from each other that their services had to be adapted. Observations of service providers working with the children, semi-structured audio-taped interviews, and informal, culturally-appropriate interviews (Valdes, 1996) in participants' preferred languages over periods of one to thirteen months were used to explore service providers' and parents' views about children's abilities, families' roles in educating their children, and ways service providers addressed cultural, linguistic, and socioeconomic diversity. The researcher used within-case and cross-case analysis including direct interpretation and categorical aggregation (Stake, 1995). A native speaker of Spanish reviewed interview transcripts and field notes utilizing a list of preliminary codes (Miles & Huberman, 1994). Findings indicate that two practitioners said they adapted services for parents to be linguistically and culturally appropriate. However, they adapted services for children based on factors related to their linguistic needs, disabilities, and developmental levels, but not culture, because they believed the children were or should become familiar with materials and activities common to mainstream children in the United States. The third service provider said she adapted her practices with children and their families to match or make accommodations for their culture, language, dialect, and prior experiences. Few accommodations for socioeconomic factors were noted. Two of the service providers networked formally and informally to "cover the bases" for Latino children with disabilities through advocacy and mentoring. They mentioned a lack of preparation for working with children and families in their homes and a need for more supervision of practitioners providing home-based services. Implications and recommendations for bilingual special educators, personnel preparation programs, and policy makers are discussed.
