Our Finnish partners plan to focus on how children work together in the process of making dual language/translanguaged books. The books will be about topics relevant to the updated Finnish mainstream curriculum.

Our immediate interest for this project is to video record how children work together to better understand how they use a mix of Roma and Finnish to create their books. The books they create will also be a great resource for other children to read, to help welcome children who speak the same home languages and are new to Finland into mainstream schools.
