paper

I am going to use the essays written by Delpit and Rose. Delpit talks about how to educate two different social and cultural groups at the same time and to try to get them to both be at the same level. Rose talks about the different levels of education that people have. He talks about teaching older students how to understand words by using what they already know about the word. Both essays talk about the different social levels and how the lack of vocabulary and 'proper'/'standard' language can hold people back from going further in life even if they are fluent. I could have a conversation with the authors about the teaching methods that could be used with different cultural and social groups so that everyone could be educated equally. I could also go from the point of what is a 'proper'/'standard language and why can't certian dialects be accepted as much as other dialects.
