This issue of the EL/Diversity newsletter from Heartland AEA highlights reasons why home language development is important, various student and family perspectives of home languages, the benefits of bilingualism/multilingualism, sample tips for welcoming multiple languages into schools and classrooms, and offers free resources in multiple languages. It also shines a spotlight on an Ames Community School District interpreter/translator who models the benefits of being multilingual in a global society.
