The use
of local
languages
for
instruction
often
leads to
inclusion
of more
local
content
in the
curriculum
and
greater
participation
of
parents
and
community
members
as
classroom
resources.
. . The
legitimization
of local
languages
that
comes
from
their
use in
schooling
can
strengthen
children's,
families'
and
communities'
sense of
inclusion
in
schooling.
