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 \u003cstrong\u003eBook Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eExamples of students' literacy practices with insights for more effective teaching.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePractical lessons gleaned from children engaging with language and literacy in flexible and dynamic ways in their everyday lives.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTargeted suggestions to help educators better understand and utilize children's unique linguistic abilities and cultural understandings.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscussion questions and examples that challenge deficit perspectives of immigrant children and reposition them as multilingual and transnational experts. \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eImplications for educators and researchers seeking ways to amplify young immigrant children's voices and leverage their knowledge.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jungmin Kwon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0807766615\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780807766613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Teachers College Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.30w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2023","brand":"Jungmin Kwon","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43945723592959,"sku":"9780807766613","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_84547161-b103-4ee4-bb47-d1ad567d2f83.jpg?v=1681509530","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/understanding-the-transnational-lives-and-jungmin-kwon-9780807766613","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
