As a model, service learning provides a framework for making explicit linkages between course-based, credit bearing academic content, the identified need of the community school, and the exigencies of preparation for engaging young English language learners in literacy rich instruction and conversation. An array of learning artifacts provides evidence of the impact of service learning on the quality of learning experiences for all participants. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt;">Key words: service learning, collaboration, early language and literacy, English language learners</span></p>}, number={4}, journal={Canadian Journal of Education/Revue canadienne de l’éducation}, author={Roessingh, Hetty}, year={2013}, month={Jan.}, pages={284–307} }
