2 Answer the questions of the Poll

3 Drawing a Language Profile

4 Language Profile Simple access Pupils of each age like to draw their own lp Explain where the languages are situated in my body (what do the parts of the body mean for me?) Explain why we use which color (what do the colours been) Important: Give everyone enough time to explain his/her painting

5 From the Language Profil to the Language Biography Let the pupils tell the others: Where, with whom, how did they learn the different languages At what level are they able to understand, speak, read, write their languages What language to they speak /think while dreaming, being angry, being happy, being in love - and if they do it in different languages, why do they think they do so?. and many other questions and discussions (storytelling, theater, round table ) Brigitta Busch, Biographisches Erzählen und Visualisieren in der sprachwissenschaftlichen Forschung, ÖdaF Mitteilungen 2/2011

6 Linquality Means in this context: to be capable to express what I mean in a language and make others understand what I want to express without painful memories fear problems, conflicts, any danger feeling inferior, helpless Other topics to discuss: What about script, writing, languages in class, in school, during breaks at school, in the family, mixed languages, sign language ecc?? Talk about our own experiences!!! (me in English, Italian, German different personalities?)

7 Variation: Identity Profile Variations: Pupils/student visualize what is important for them what they are proud of their values what they can do very well what they want to be capable of in their own first language (guess who made this poster?) identity profile of the whole class

8 Some Examples of Erika s Mulitlingual Lessons - examples
