Svenska som andraspråk i praktiken ger nycklar till förskolans unika möjligheteter att arbeta med språkutveckling. Här finner du handfasta exempel på planering, genomförande och uppföljning med fokus på ett rikt och nyanserat ordförråd.

Utgångspunkten är att det språkliga samspelet mellan personal och barn är avgörande för barns kommunikation och språkutveckling. Bland annat presenteras en modell för ett språkutvecklande förhållningssätt och insikter om hur förskolepersonal, oavsett modersmål, kan förbättra sin språkundervisning. Målet är att främja den språkliga bredden likaväl som det språkliga djupet hos barn för att nå en mer likvärdig undervisning.

Rotad i både forskning och praktik, vänder sig den här antologin till alla er som arbetar inom förskolans område. Oavsett om du är verksam eller blivande förskollärare, barnskötare, logoped eller förskolechef/rektor, är detta en viktig guide för att skapa en inkluderande lärmiljö med likvärdiga förutsättningar.

Svenska som andraspråk i praktiken tar avstamp i aktuell forskning om flerspråkiga barns språkutveckling i förskolan. Den är också en praktiknära uppföljning av den mer teoretiskt inriktade boken Svenska som andraspråk i förskolan, Natur & Kultur 2018.

”Ett språkutvecklande förhållningssätt ska inte vara ett mål som är isolerat från resten av förskolans verksamhet. Det är ett arbete som bör pågå i all utbildning och undervisning under årets alla dagar, år ut och år in, och ständigt kroka arm med utbildningens pågående mål.”Hanna Walsö, citat ur boken

Rooted in multimodal conversation analysis and based on video recordings of naturally occurring social interactions, this book presents a novel analytical perspective for the study of touch. The authors focus on how different forms of touch are interactionally organized in everyday, institutional, and professional practices, showing how touch is multimodally achieved in social interaction, how it acquires its significance, how it is embedded in the current activity and in its social context, and how it is systematically intertwined with talk, facial expressions, and body posture.

Including work by a wide range of renowned researchers, this volume provides rich visual illustrations of situations featuring touch as a social and intersubjective practice. The studies make a compelling contribution to the field by clearly examining and demonstrating the social meaning of touch for the participants in social interaction in a broad range of contexts.

Presenting a new methodology for the study of touch, this is key reading for all researchers and scholars working in conversation analysis, multimodality, and related areas.

Embodied Family Choreography documents the lived and embodied practices employed to establish, maintain, and negotiate intimate social relationships in the family, examining forms of control, care, and creativity. Making use of the extensive video archives of family interaction in the US and Sweden, it presents the first investigation of how touch and interaction between bodies, in conjunction with talk, constitute a primary means of orchestrating activities through directives, thus creating rich relationships through supportive interchanges, and engaging in playful explorations of the world. Through close investigation of the sequential and simultaneous engagement of bodies interacting with other bodies, this book makes visible the important role touch plays in the context of contemporary Western middle class family life and is pioneering in its analysis of how the visual, aural, and haptic senses (usually analysed separately) mutually elaborate one another. As such, Embodied Family Choreography will appeal to scholars of child development, the sociology of the family and ethnomethodology and conversation analysis.
