Abstract [sv]

Syftet med studien är att undersöka vilka strategier pedagoger använder sig utav för att underlätta deltagandet i samlingen för barn med andra modersmålän svenska. Studien vilar på webbenkäter som skickats ut till pedagoger runt om i Mellansverige. Resultatet visar att barngruppens storlek har en stor betydelse för barnens deltagande och kommunicerande, i mindre grupper ges barnen större talutrymme och pedagogerna hinner möta varje barn utifrån varje barns behov och intressen. Samlingens syfte visar sig vara olika beroende på om samlingen genomförs i helgrupp eller i mindre grupper. I mindre grupper anses syftet vara språkutveckling medan det i helgrupp är att skapa gemenskap. Verktyg som pedagoger använder sig utav för att förtydliga och underlätta deltagandet i samlingen för barn med andra modersmål än svenska är bl.a. bilder/fotografier, föremål, TAKK (tecken som alternativ och kompletterande kommunikation) och kroppsspråk. Språkstöd i form av bl.a. modersmålslärare och flerspråkiga pedagoger visar sig också vara något som pedagoger använder sig utav för att främja deltagandet i samlingen för barn med andra modersmål än svenska. Pedagogerna ser det som en stor tillgång, dock är det många som saknar ett samarbete med just modersmålslärare och eller flerspråkiga pedagoger.

Abstract [en]

The purpose of this study is to examine what kinds of strategies educators use to ease the participation in group activities for children with other native languages than Swedish. The study is based on web surveys that were sent out to educators all around middle Sweden. The results show that the size of the childrens's group has a significant impact on the children's participation and communication. In smaller groups, children get more space to talk and the educators hav the time to meet each child based on their need and interest. The purpose with the group activities turns out to be different depending on whether or not the activity is performed in one big group, or in smaller groups. In smaller groups the purpose of the activity is considered to be language development, while in one big group, the purpose isto create community. Tools that educators use to illustrate and help the participation for children with other native languages than Swedish are for instnce pictures/photographs, objects, TAKK (signs for alternative additional communication) and body language. Language support in terms of native language teacher and multilingual educators also appears to be something educators make use of to encourage the participation in groups for children with other native languages than Swedish. The educators consider mixed language groups a huge asset, but many lack cooperation with the native language teacher and/ or multilingual educators.
