Looking for any research on children's with EAL settling in/ transition process from home to nursery. How do we support them in this process as parents or practitioners and by working together. Thanks
We have just looked at this as part of a wider research evaluation for the European Schools. We were looking at upper secondary but many of our recommendations about language instruction and bilingualism also apply to nursery and primary, I think. One of the key things we found is the need to teach explicit vocabulary and phraseology. I have just today uploaded our final report for the project into my profile which might give a few ideas - it's pretty technical but I think there's some good material in there which you might find helpful.
Hi there Marlena,try www.learning links.com. They may have some publications on this topic.
Marlena:
I have not done research in this area so I looked at what is available on RG:

Hope this is helpful. I extend best wishes for every success in your worthy research.
Many thanks,
Debra
