Boutte, Gloria Swindler; Johnson, George L., Jr. – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2013
Educators often do not recognize biliteracy and bidialectalism in African American Language (AAL) speakers. Chronicling the experiences of twin four/five-year old AAL and emergent Standard English speakers, we discuss the importance of recognizing and building on the routines and identities of African American children and families. We present…
