Literacy Events in a Community of Young Writers (Language & Literacy Series) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

How do children raised in the powerful oral traditions of a Native American community use writing to construct meaningful learning experiences? That provocative question sent the authors into the classrooms of Arizona's Tohono O'odham community for a year-long research study, integrating classroom, family, home and community experiences. "Literacy Events in a Community of Young Writers" is intended to be of use to anyone interested in language learning: teachers, researchers, school and community administrators, linguists, ethnographers and social historians. The students' own stories and the authors' analysis of regional and national contexts should make this book a useful contribution to both literacy and multicultural research.
