Supporting Bi/Multilingualism at Home and When Living AbroadDate: Tuesday, December 8, 2020, 12 p.m. - 1:30 p.m.
Location: Zoom, Register here
What does it mean and look like to be a bi/multilingual family? What are the opportunities available to support bi/multilingualism at home and when living abroad? Bi/multilingualism is a choice and you can make it! But you don’t need to do it all by yourself. Like parenting, raising a child bilingual or multilingual can be challenging but there is also help available to make the journey. We want to support your journey by looking at relevant research and creative language tools and approaches; exploring challenges and possibilities; and creating opportunities for you to meet other like-minded families.
