This updated edition offers a readable and practical explanation of what translanguaging is and how it can be used to inform instruction in K-12 schools.

Through engaging vignettes from a variety of monolingual and translanguaging settings, this book traces the challenges encountered by emergent bilingual students (EBs) and the schools that serve them and recommends promising solutions.

Each chapter of this second edition has been updated to reflect new scholarship in translanguaging theory and practice, address and clarify common criticisms of translanguaging, and speak to current challenges to implementing translanguaging-informed practices. Among the updates are expanded content on dual-language bilingual programs, critical literacy, working with children who have experienced war and displacement, new and emerging technologies such as translation tools and artificial intelligence chatbots, and language-focused instruction in translanguaging classrooms. The book ends with concrete takeaways for successfully adopting translanguaging in different education settings.

By embracing home languages and cultures, this approach nurtures the development of multiple literacies, enabling individuals to thrive academically, socially, linguistically, and intellectually.
