Herausforderungen und Chancen muttersprachlichen Unterrichts beim Übergang von Elementarstufe zu Primarstufe

Abstract: In this article challenges and chances for mother tongue tuition in national educational institutes are discussed. Mother tongue teachers as mentors may close the gap between institutions of elementary and primary education for kids whose L1 is not the language mainly spoken in these institutions. It is discussed in how far KINDINMI takes a close look on these aspects in different countries, which are characterized by an institutional monolingual habitus regarding students with a different L1 than the majority language.

Presentation of KINDINMI at conference “Interkulturalität und Mehrsprachigkeit in der schulischen Praxis”

Rainer Hawlik (PH Wien) was invited to present concepts and ideas of KINDINMI during the conference „Interkulturalität und Mehrsprachigkeit in der schulischen Praxis“, which took place on 20th and 21st of April 2018 in Linz (Austria) at PH Oberösterreich.

Hawlik gave an insight on challenges and chances of mother tongue tuition, especially in the field of transition from elementary school to primary school. Mother tongue tuition teachers could play a crucial role as mentors for kids, owning a low social economic and low social cultural status, while struggling at the same time with norms and values of a so-called majority society.
