	Home Language Practices of Trilingual Children in French Immersion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		We attend to the relationship between the children's home language socialization, their definition of self with respect to the three languages in their repertoire, and their parents' values and aspirations, recognizing that their family practices are shaped by contact with the languages and cultures of their countries of origin and adoption.
		For example, in her study of the language practices of Punjabi-speaking families in England, Moffat (1991) acknowledged that there was a fairly important cultural gap between her and the study participants that led her to opt out of home observations and rely only on interviews with the mothers.
		In addition to maintaining the family language at home, the parents have sent their children on trips to their country of origin as another means of ensuring that their children identify with the family language and develop a sense of belonging to members of that language group.

	Home-School Study
		The original purpose of the Home-School Study of Language and Literacy Development was to investigate the social prerequisites to literacy success, identifiable in both home and school interactions, of a group of racially diverse, English-speaking children from low-income families growing up in the Boston area.
		A primary focus of the earliest phase of the Home-School Study was on the home and preschool factors that would predict children's language and literacy skills in kindergarten.
		The Collaborative Language and Literacy Instruction Project (CLLIP), founded by Daniel Pallante of the Ohio Educational Development Center, is an extensive teacher training program grounded in theoretical and empirical work that emphasizes the primacy of language development as a critical foundation of early literacy and school success.

	Past Issues - July/August 1997
		The study has shown that the level of vocabulary present in adult talk to children who are three and four years old, in the home setting and in preschools, is a strong predictor of the level of vocabulary that child will have attained by second grade.
		The simple explanation is because the home's language environment is relatively constant and provides important opportunities for language interactions between children and adults.
		While preschools and elementary schools contribute to children's language development, opportunities for home-like interactions are rare, due to the size of classes and the length of time spent in class.

	Home language, school language: Preschool programs play a key role in helping children learn English and the language ...
		A family's language is a bond that connects the child to the family, says Lily Wong Filmore, a UC Berkeley professor and leading expert on young children's language learning.
		When children forget their parents' and grandparents' language or see their family's language and culture as undesirable, the family loses a powerful tool for supporting and guiding their children.
		When parents read stories that way in their home languages, they help their children build skills they will use later in learning to read and write in English as well as their home language.

	The Scheme Programming Language
		Scheme was one of the first programming languages to incorporate first class procedures as in the lambda calculus, thereby proving the usefulness of static scope rules and block structure in a dynamically typed language.
		Scheme was the first major dialect of Lisp to distinguish procedures from lambda expressions and symbols, to use a single lexical environment for all variables, and to evaluate the operator position of a procedure call in the same way as an operand position.
		Scheme is also the first programming language to support hygienic macros, which permit the syntax of a block-structured language to be extended reliably.

	Talossan Language Home Page (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Despite the odd directions the language was taking, however, Madison wrote all of Talossa's newspapers in it during this period and the language was becoming a patriotic and necessary feature of Talossa's one-man culture.
		Shortly thereafter the language fell into relative disuse, but in the autumn of 1984, as new citizens began to swell the tiny Kingdom and drive it toward becoming a genuine democracy, the King took a new interest in the native culture he had created.
		Of course the Talossan language does not have to be viewed in these terms, as a "restored" language giving life to an ancient reality, but for the author of this website, this is the most satisfying.
