Abstract

Including home languages in classrooms can increase multilingual students’ participation, improve literacy, and promote inclusion. It is a prevalent topic at academic conferences; however, home language use in classrooms is less common. This study was a microanalysis of home language use during Instructional Conversations at a linguistically diverse English-medium preschool. Data sources included 27 h of classroom videos of Instructional Conversations and interviews with educators who used children's home languages. Home language use during Instructional Conversations was rare in these data; however, when employed, it was followed by increased participation by the multilingual children, facilitating language and concept development. These findings indicate a need for explicit educator preparation on home language use in classrooms. Educators in this study who used children's home languages adopted alternative discourse patterns than those traditionally found in schools. They reported being motivated by the increased participation of multilingual children and positive responses from families.

在幼儿教学对话中融入家庭语言
将家庭语言纳入课堂教学可以提高多语种学生的参与度,提高识字率,促进全纳。这是学术会议上的一个热门话题,但在课堂上使用家庭语言的情况却不常见。本研究是一项微观分析,研究对象是语言多样化的英语学前班学生在教学对话中使用家庭语言的情况。数据来源包括 27 小时的教学对话课堂录像,以及对使用儿童家庭语言的教育工作者的访谈。在这些数据中,在教学对话中使用母语的情况很少见;但是,一旦使用了母语,多语儿童的参与度就会提高,从而促进语言和概念的发展。这些研究结果表明,教育工作者有必要为课堂上使用家庭语言做好明确的准备。在本研究中,使用儿童家庭语言的教育工作者采用了不同于学校传统的话语模式。他们表示,多语种儿童参与度的提高和家庭的积极响应是他们工作的动力。
