Abstract "To get the complete Idioms for Inclusivity experience, this book can be purchased alongside four others as a set, Idioms for Inclusivity: Fostering Belonging with Language, 978-1-032-28635-8. Informed by sociolinguistic research, yet written accessibly, Use Your Voice challenges readers to investigate the concept of identity as it relates to both language-use and inclusivity. This engaging and delightfully illustrated book invites students to engage with concepts such as: - the cultural meaning of the idiom "use your voice" - Indexicality, a framework that linguists use to research and understand how our identities are encoded in language, - Why the expectation to "use your voice" can make someone feel excluded, - and how understanding the way language works can help us learn to be more inclusive Featuring practical inclusivity tips related to integrating learning into daily conversations, this enriching curriculum supplement can be used in a Language Arts setting to learn about figurative language; in a Social Studies setting to discuss diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; or as an introduction to linguistics for students ages 7-14"-- Provided by publisher.
