ABSTRACT

This study explores how three elementary teachers in the US South and Midwest leveraged translanguaging pedagogies – or instruction that makes use of bilingual students’ full linguistic repertoires – to support participation in literacy instruction. Using qualitative methods of data collection and analysis, it explores how teachers and students gave voice to their identities, recognized resources, and reshaped classrooms to create, participate in, and sustain translanguaging pedagogies. It uses an ecological approach to describe these strategies as envoicing, entextualizing, and recontextualizing, foregrounding the relationship between identities, resources, and contexts in classrooms. The study concludes with strategies for educators who seek to make their classrooms more multilingual, as well as recommendations for sustaining translanguaging classroom ecologies.

Resumen

En este estudio exploramos cómo tres maestras de escuela primaria en las regiones del sur y el medio-oeste de Estados Unidos implementaron pedagogías de translingüísmo — instrucción que hace uso de todo el repertorio lingüístico del estudiante—para fomentar su participación durante el proceso de enseñanza de la lectoescritura. Usando métodos cualitativos de investigación, examinamos cómo maestros y estudiantes utilizaron sus identidades, reconocieron varios recursos, y reorganizaron las clases para crear, participar, y sostener pedagogías translingüísticas. Utilizamos un esquema ecológico para describir estas estrategias como envocación, entextualización, y recontextualización, enfatizando la relación entre identidades, recursos, y contextos en aulas escolares. En este artículo proponemos estrategias

para aquellos maestros que estén bucando maneras de hacer sus clases y su instrucción más multilingüal, así como sugerencias para promulgar ecologías educativas translingüísticas.
