Through research, storytelling, curriculum development, and pedagogy, this book will help educators engage emergent bilingual and multilingual (EBML) students with social studies and citizenship education. Chapters are written by well-known and new scholars who are enacting teaching and research that center the needs, interests, and experiences of EBML youth. Drawing from multiple, intersecting, and interdisciplinary frameworks that focus on culture and language, chapters highlight social studies in varying disciplinary and nondisciplinary spaces (e.g., community, geography, family, civics, history) both inside and outside the classroom. Examples of frameworks include culturally relevant and sustaining pedagogies, linguistically responsive teaching, LatCrit and critical pedagogy, translanguaging pedagogy, and transnational citizenship. This insightful volume also directly challenges oppressive structures, policies, and practices that continually marginalize EBML students and are rooted in racism, linguicism, and xenophobia. This unique collection is designed for scholars, teachers, and teacher educators to actively read, reflect on, and enact the approaches shared by educators who are doing this work. Book Features: Highlights research conducted with youth and teachers in elementary, middle, and secondary school contexts, as well as with preservice teachers and teacher educators.Written in a user-friendly format for quick and informative access to theoretical and practical approaches. Outlines specific ideas for how to prepare pre- and inservice teachers for working with EBML students. Includes case studies, unit and lesson plan examples, and vignettes.Concludes with expert commentaries on where the field of social studies must go next to best meet the dynamic and multifaceted needs of EBML students. Contributors include Jennifer M. Bondy, Melissa Gibson, Yeji Kim, Chauncey Monte-Sano, Timothy Monreal, Pablo C. Ramirez, Mary J. Schleppegrell, Jesús A. Tirado, and Paul J. Yoder.

Después de los éxitos alcanzados con "Anjonio" en el 2010, "Una mujer llamada Perla" en el 2011, y de ser premiada por el Instituto de Cultura Peruana en el género de Poesía también en el 2011, Ana Fernández nos entrega "Amigo y sus amigos". Esta vez, Estanislao y su ayudante Amigo recorren las calles de un barrio pobre de "la ciudad de los tinajones". A través de las amas de casa que les compran diariamente las latas de carbón de a diez centavos, ellos van conociendo muchos detalles de sus vidas: cómo aman, cómo sufren, cómo se divierten, cómo velan a sus muertos y cómo van adquiriendo -reuniendo centavo a centavo o pagando a plazos-, el alquiler de sus casas, sus alimentos, ropas y lo poco que necesitan para ir viviendo. Amigo, por ser más observador y sociable que Estanislao, es el que se entera de las debilidades y secretos de cada familia. Él no pudo ir a la escuela, pero tiene un sueño: escribir un libro en el que escondería un mensaje. El que lo descubra y lo lleve a la práctica, comenzará una gran cadena que alcanzará hasta el último habitante del más remoto rincón del planeta. Se desarrollaría una evolución positiva de la conciencia individual, hasta conseguir la soñada "Era de Luz". Como Beba y Tito -menores que él- no pueden acompañarlo en el recorrido diario, quedan en la casa para cuidar a los puercos que crecen en el corral del patio. Aceptaron quedarse con la condición de que cada tarde, al regresar, se reunirían para que él les contara los chismes del día. "Amigo y sus amigos" nos recuerda que todo lo que existe, vibra, y que esa energía encierra sutiles lecciones. Nos queda decidir: recibirlas o ignorarlas.
