Zaidi ya hilo, bustani ya wanyama pia imefungwa na hataweza kucheza na rafiki zake wanaoishi mle. Mambo hayabadiliki hata wakati Noah na kaka yake mdogo wananawisha mikono yao kama walivyoambiwa na walimu wao. Lakini, wakati Noah na familia yake wanapoondoka kwenda matembezini, anagundua ya kwamba rafiki zake walikuwa wamechora pinde za mvua na kuziweka kwenye madirisha yao, na anatambua ya kwamba rafiki zake pia hawana hakika kuhusu siku zijazo, na ya kwamba siku moja yeye na rafiki zake watacheza pamoja tena.

HOW TO ASK CHALLENGING QUESTIONS THAT LEAD YOU TO REAL SOLUTIONS. 
Have you ever reached the end of a project and realized that you were solving the wrong question? Based on a blog interview series, Rhonda Broussard - an expert in pedagogy, international education, and racial equity - uses conversations with education leaders from eleven countries to try to answer her one good question. A question that she couldn't answer on her own, a question that could inspire different truths based on context, a question that could bring clarity in complexity. This book provides ample fodder for how you might define your own one good question. 
What Broussard finds along the way is even more valuable: these conversations led to more provocations than answers. Her intense curiosity coincided with the launch of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and introduced Broussard to a global vision for education by the year 2030. This book contemplates questions like Who should really go to college? What voice should parents have in their children's education? How is the economy limiting education access worldwide? One Good Question gives new ways of thinking about the education problems we face today and how they connect us across the globe. 
YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT HOW 
- Let youth lead from a social entrepreneur who stepped aside to do just that 
- What urban school communities could be learning from their rural counterpart, and 
- How multi-country partnerships position local experts to lead.

Language is a powerful tool that shapes our identity, connects us to our culture, and allows us to understand and appreciate the diversity of human cultures. In Africa, there are over 2,000 different languages spoken, making it the most linguistically diverse continent on the planet. This creates a unique and complex environment for education, particularly for children who are in the early stages of language acquisition. The native or first language of a child plays a critical role in their cognitive development and perception of the world around them. It is through language that children learn to communicate, understand their environment, and make sense of their experiences. Children who have access to their native language during the early stages of language acquisition tend to develop stronger cognitive abilities, which can benefit their academic performance and overall well-being.However, despite the clear benefits of multilingualism and the importance of native language in child development, many education systems in Africa continue to prioritize colonial languages such as English, French, and Portuguese over indigenous languages. This results in a lack of educational resources and opportunities for children who speak their native language, which can lead to educational inequality and a disconnection from their cultural identity.In response to this, there is a growing need for multilingual education programs that value and support students' linguistic and cultural backgrounds. These programs prioritize the use of the child's native language as a means of instruction and aim to promote multilingualism as a valuable asset. They also recognize the importance of preserving indigenous languages and cultures, and work to ensure that these languages are not lost due to the dominance of colonial languages.Overall, the need for multilingual education programs in Africa is stronger than ever. By prioritizing the use of the child's native language and promoting multilingualism, these programs can support the cognitive development and academic success of children, as well as the preservation of linguistic and cultural diversity.How can we re-evaluate and re-conceptualize the way we approach and think about multilingualism in education? What can we learn from Africa's linguistic situation and apply to other multilingual regions? How can we create more inclusive and empowering educational environments that promote multilingualism as a valuable asset rather than a hindrance? These questions will be explored in this book.

Product Description Franglais Soup e, is a gently illustrated rhyming abecedarian book in English and French. By using words that sound the same and have the same meaning, "new" language acquisition seems effortless, and the listener/reader can hear and develop new vocabulary with visual aids or build on an existing core.All of the words selected in the book start with the same letter in both English and French to enforce visual comprehension. The concept is that once the book is finished in one language, the reader may flip it upside down and start again in the alternate language.- Parents and teachers will find this book, with its lilting rhymes and gentle illustrations, an engaging book to be read to babies or pre-readers as a way of introducing vocabulary bolstered by illustrations that are clear and pleasant. For the reader (parent), this book presents the opportunity for dual language learning. For the reading child, the book will stimulate mastery of basic words in two languages, supported by rhyming and illustrations.- The author/Illustrator is a bi-lingual, classically trained Shakespearean actor who currently teaches English to Journalism and Communication Majors in France. The book was created with her 5 year old daughter and students as a game to find words that were similar in both French and English. By using rhythm and musicality to create the rhymes, the author/illustrator was able to focus on the things that were the same rather than things that were different between the 2 languages. About the Author Adrienne Mei Irving was born in Toronto, Canada. Her bilingual journey was established and nurtured in the Canadian School System's Early French Immersion Program and sustained during her years at the National Theatre School of Canada (NTSC) in Montreal where she received classical Shakespearean training in theatre performance. This training ensured attention to rhetoric, verse and meter - important cues in learning/teaching new language. Adrienne currently lives with her family in the South of France where she is raising a bilingual daughter, and teaches English to Journalism and Communications majors. This book was developed as a tool for teaching her daughter and students to find words that were similar in both languages using concepts of rhetoric, verse, meter and musicality to create imagery and quick word recall.
