The text offers insights based on the author's observations, interactions, and interviews with second-generation immigrant children, their families, and their teachers in the United States and South Korea. These collected stories give educators a better understanding of how elementary school children engage in language, literacy, and learning in and across spaces and countries; the forms of unique linguistic and cultural knowledge immigrant children build, expand, and mobilize as they move across contexts; the ways in which immigrant children position themselves and represent their identities; and how educators and researchers can honor these children's identities and unique talents. Featuring children's narratives, drawings, writings, maps, and photographs, this resource is a must-read for educators and researchers seeking to create more inclusive learning spaces and literacy practices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExamples of students' literacy practices with insights for more effective teaching.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractical lessons gleaned from children engaging with language and literacy in flexible and dynamic ways in their everyday lives.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTargeted suggestions to help educators better understand and utilize children's unique linguistic abilities and cultural understandings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscussion questions and examples that challenge deficit perspectives of immigrant children and reposition them as multilingual and transnational experts. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImplications for educators and researchers seeking ways to amplify young immigrant children's voices and leverage their knowledge.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJungmin Kwon\u003c\/b\u003e is an assistant professor in the Department of Teacher Education at Michigan State University.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.5 x 8.6 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 22, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50405671567597,"sku":"9780807766606","price":73.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/en-ca\/products\/understanding-the-transnational-lives-and-literacies-of-immigrant-children-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
