Having Your Say

1. What did they say in regard to your RQ?
All of my secondary sources take into consideration the constantly changing rules of English grammar. They also agreed that teaching grammar to students speaking a different home discourse than the dominant discourse is challenging and brings up a lot of questions: How exactly do we do this as teachers? Sipe says it best when she asks, "How do we respect and honor students' own language?"

2. What gap still exists?
The question that remains after reading all of these articles is:
How do we introduce adolescents into genres and discourse communities that differ from their own while simultaneously respecting their own languages?
