Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning from children about citizenship status and how it shapes their schooling There is a persistent assumption in the field of education that children are largely unaware of their immigration status and its implications. In Knowing Silence, Ariana Mangual Figueroa challenges this “myth of ignorance.” By listening carefully to both the speech and significant silences of six Latina students from mixed-immigration-status families, from elementary school into middle school and beyond, she reveals the complex ways young people understand and negotiate immigration status and its impact on their lives. Providing these children with iPod Touches to record their own conversations, Mangual Figueroa observes when and how they choose to talk about citizenship at home, at school, and in public spaces. Analyzing family conversations about school forms, in-class writing assignments, encounters with the police, and applications for college, she demonstrates that children grapple with the realities of citizenship from an early age. Educators who underestimate children’s knowledge, Mangual Figueroa shows, can marginalize or misunderstand these students and their families. Combining significant empirical findings with reflections on the ethical questions surrounding research and responsibility, Mangual Figueroa models new ways scholars might collaborate with educators, children, and families. With rigorous and innovative ethnographic methodologies, Knowing Silence makes audible the experiences of immigrant-origin students in their own terms, ultimately offering teachers and researchers a crucial framework for understanding citizenship in the contemporary classroom.

Download or read book Spanish Conversations written by Bakari Akil II, Ph.D. and published by Academic Group Publishing (BRAII). This book was released on 2017-08-03 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *"Spanish Conversations" will increase your conversational and Spanish reading ability. As a learner of Spanish, I am always searching for opportunities to satisfy my cravings for more material. Like most human beings, I need variety to keep me interested. However, to learn a language, certain concepts require repetition to be mastered and cannot be avoided. In order to do this, I like to review the same concepts in many different ways until I know them. One of the ways I achieve this goal of “knowing it” is by constantly reading Spanish books with conversations as the theme. These simulated conversations allow me to stay grounded in the basics as well as fine tune other areas needed for growth as a Spanish speaker. The problem with this approach is that it becomes increasingly hard to find conversational material once the ability to read reaches the intermediate level. Most material for this level is in the form of articles, novels or non-fiction instead of a conversational format. Yet, conversation is the most important part of speaking and plays the most important role in understanding what others are saying. The purpose of this book is to offer the intermediate learner (or very advanced beginner) an opportunity to improve his or her conversational ability. It will also increase the reader’s ability to read Spanish. The dialogues in these books take place in diverse settings and are structured like conversations you would experience in similar situations in your own life. *This book is presented in a bi-lingual format. Spanish is presented first and English follows in italics. **This book is designed for advanced beginners to intermediate readers. (However, advanced speakers looking for a refresher can use this book as well.) ***The conversations have been translated by professionals.
