The Need for Heritage Language Resources
As a former teacher, an educational publisher's representative, and founder of Smokley, it became clear to me, Martha Smillie Coakley, that our students who speak languages other than English desperately needed resources. I was asked hundreds of times in meetings if I had anything in Portuguese, and I always needed to say no.
Building Belonging Through Shared Reading
When students bring home a book in English to their parents who speak another language, that child and their family are missing out on a valuable family experience. When new arrivals are already strong readers in their heritage language, providing resources for them can help them feel included. If they can read the same books as their new classmates, it becomes an opportunity to bring a true sense of belonging.
