Episode 6: Cultivating Biliteracy: Embracing Diversity in Literacy Education with Dr. Chelsea Stinson
In this insightful episode of Literacy Launchpad: Read, Learn, Grow, host Jose Miguel Longo is joined by Chelsea Stinson, a professor at Binghamton University and a passionate advocate for biliteracy. Together, they delve into the significance of cultivating biliteracy in our homes and communities, emphasizing the importance of language, culture, and connection in the literacy journey.
Listeners will gain valuable insights into the concept of biliteracy and how it goes beyond mere language acquisition. Chelsea shares her experiences as a mother and educator, highlighting the challenges and opportunities parents face in fostering a supportive environment for multilingual learners. The conversation touches on the role of parents, caregivers, and educators in creating spaces where children can thrive linguistically and culturally.
Throughout the episode, Chelsea provides practical strategies for integrating language into daily life, from singing songs in multiple languages to engaging in interactive games that promote phonemic awareness.
