Claudine and Dismas have always struggled to make ends meet in Burundi. On their farm, they grow beans, maize, bananas and sorghum, which helps them financially since their harvest is profitable, and the lands fruitful. After her second pregnancy, Claudine became very ill, and much of the extras they had went to pay for traditional healers and medical doctors searching for answers to her sickness.

The birth of their second child, Valerie, with clubfoot added to the family’s tight financial situation. The condition was not even identified until about a month after Valerie was born when her grandmother was changing her. The grandmother recognized clubfoot because Claudine’s stepsister also had children born with the disability. People discouraged Claudine and Dismas from finding treatment because they felt Valerie’s feet resulted from the strange illness Claudine suffered during her pregnancy. Even if treatment was possible, neighbors reasoned the family would never be able to afford it.

Claudine and Dismas decided to put all their limited financial resources toward clubfoot treatment. Still, saving enough money for transportation to the first clinic visit took them a while. At the clinic, Hope Walks staff gave them the good news that treatment would be free for them.

The book “No Mirrors in my Nana's House” is a fiction book about a young African American girl who enjoys going to visit her Nana, whose house doesn't have any mirrors. The young girl's Nana zones in on the young girls inner beauty instead of focusing on external appearance. Since Nana's house doesn't have any mirrors, they can't see the reflection of the cracks in the wall or the clothes that don't fit. The granddaughter grows up seeing the world through her Nana's loving eyes, rather than in a coldly objective reflection. The symbolic meaning of mirrorsis a clear view of oneself causing people to think about themselves and analyze feelings and actions. Dr. Ysaye M. Barnwell, the book’s author, is best known as a member of Sweet Honey in the Rock, an a capella quintet of African American women who perform to acclaim across the country and around the world. "No Mirrors in My Nana's House" is one of a number of her compositions performed and recorded by the group that she transformed in her first book for children. Barnwell, who has a PhD (1975) in speech pathology from the University of Pittsburgh, and also earned a Master of Science in Public health, from Howard University in 1981, informs us that in Africa "Nana" refers to a respected leader or teacher, and also that no mirrors are allowed during initiation ceremonies in Africa.

It refers to two major aspects of language use today. The first is the variability of meaning making in different cultural, social or domain-specific contexts. These differences are becoming ever more significant to our communication environment. This means that it is no longer enough for literacy teaching to focus solely on the rules of standard forms of the national language. Rather, the business of communication and representation of meaning today increasingly requires that learners are able figure to out differences in patterns of meaning from one context to another. These differences are the consequence of any number of factors such as culture, gender, life experience, subject matter, or social or subject domain. Every meaning exchange is cross-cultural to a certain degree.

The second aspect of language use today arises in part from the characteristics of the new information and communication media. Meaning is made in ways that are increasingly multimodal – in which written-linguistic modes of meaning interface with oral, visual, audio, gestural, tactile and spatial patterns of meaning.

The Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) in its rationale for choosing English to be taught in Brazilian schools justified the choice for English based on relevant role in world communication. The learning and teaching process will happen through the study of daily linguistic practices, and will encompass thought over those practices because:

Language Trends is an annual survey of primary and secondary schools in England, designed to gather information about the situation for language teaching and learning. Its aims are: (a) to assess the impact of policy measures in relation to languages; and (b) to analyse strengths and weaknesses based both on quantitative evidence and on views expressed by teachers. Since 2015 there has also been an annual survey in Wales, and since 2019 a biennial survey in Northern Ireland; reports can be found on the corresponding country’s British Council website. The Language Trends series shows general shifts in data and seeks to provide a springboard for teachers, school leaders, academics, inspectors, policy makers, school pupils and the public to consider aspects of language learning more deeply. The headline findings for 2023 include:

• Almost nine out of ten responding primary schools have some pupils for whom English is an Additional Language (EAL).
• The 2023 data reflect a positive increase in the number of primary schools in contact with secondary schools concerning language education.
• French remains the most popular language at Key Stage 3, followed closely by Spanish in both state and independent sectors.
• German is the third most popular curricular language, but entries are much higher in the independent sector.
• For the fourth year running, Spanish continues to have the highest number of A-level entries.
• Schools’ international engagement is improving since the Covid-19 pandemic.
• Further study is required to observe to what extent parents’/carers’ attitudes to languages can affect pupils’ desire to study a language.
