On Becoming Bilingual (Routledge Foundations In Linguistic Anthropology) - 9781138780743

On Becoming Bilingual: Children's Experiences across Homes, Schools, and Communities provides a theoretical and methodological introduction to research on children's participation in and across a multiplicity of activities where they display complex linguistic and sociocultural knowledge. From a perspective that engages intersections of language, race, and class, the book reviews foundational and recent studies highlighting innovations, trends, and future directions for research. The book offers a helpful set of resources, including guiding questions at the start of each chapter, links to online and bibliographic sources, discussion questions and activities, and a glossary of key terms. This book is intended for scholars and students in language-oriented fields of study who are interested in learning about how bilingual children engage with, negotiate, and transform their social worlds.
