Bilingual teachers embracing translanguaging in an urban public school district

Bolster, Sara What is translanguaging? How is translanguaging defined? How do bilingual teachers’ experience with translanguaging change their thoughts about the use of it in our classrooms? The purpose of this qualitative research study will be to interview bilingual teachers in one urban Public School District who embraced translanguaging in their classrooms. This study will give us perspective on how translanguaging is seen and used and the benefits and challenges when embracing translanguaging in a public-school bilingual classroom. Participants will be bilingual teachers in one urban public school district. These teachers will be asked a series of questions to answer three research questions. The research will be used to show other bilingual teachers who are not yet embracing translanguaging what it is, how it works in bilingual students, and the benefits and challenges when embracing translanguaging.
