Many young African American children use a linguistic variety commonly referred to as Black English Vernacular (BEV) that is different from the linguistic standard expected and required in schools. Maintaining students’ home linguistic varieties (as one form of communication) is important for self-esteem and self- and group-identity. Because speech-language pathologists may serve as consultants to early childhood teachers, and may also provide second dialect instruction, what are some possible practices that may lessen the possibility of jeopardizing the integrity of students’ home linguistic varieties?
