Abstract:

Editor's Note: This is a new edition of a previously announced title.

Exploring language, culture and education among immigrants in the United
States, this volume discusses the range of experiences in raising children
with more than one language in major ethno-linguistic groups in New York.
Research and practice from the fields of speech-language pathology, bilingual
education, and public health in immigrant families are brought together to
provide guidance for speech-language pathologists in differentiating language
disorders from language variation, and for parents on how to raise their
children with more than one language. Commonalities among dissimilar groups,
such as Chinese, Korean, and Hispanic immigrants are analyzed, as well as the
language needs of Arab-Americans, the home literacy practices of immigrant
parents who speak Mixteco and Spanish, and the crucial role of teachers in
bridging immigrants' classroom and home contexts. These studies shed new light
on much-needed policy reforms to improve the involvement of culturally and
linguistically diverse families in decisions affecting their children's
education.
