1.1 Aspects to keep in mind when teaching a home language to Intermediate
Phase (IP) learners in a multicultural context:
Teaching a home language to Intermediate Phase learners in a multicultural context requires
careful consideration of several aspects:
1. Cultural Sensitivity: Understand and respect the diverse cultural backgrounds of the
learners. Acknowledge that learners may have different linguistic abilities and
preferences based on their cultural upbringing.
2. Linguistic Diversity: Recognize that learners may come from different linguistic
backgrounds and proficiency levels in the home language. Adapt teaching strategies to
accommodate these differences.
3. Inclusive Teaching Practices: Ensure that teaching materials, examples, and activities
reflect and respect the cultural and linguistic diversity of the learners. Use inclusive
language and avoid stereotypes.
4. Promotion of Identity: Help learners develop a positive sense of identity through their
home language. Emphasize the value and importance of maintaining and developing
proficiency in their home language within the broader context of South Africa's
multicultural society.
5. Integration with Other Subjects: Explore opportunities to integrate the teaching of the
home language with other subjects or topics relevant to learners' interests and
experiences. This integration can enhance engagement and understanding.
6. Support for Language Development: Provide scaffolding and support to help learners
build on their existing language skills while acquiring new ones. Use differentiated
instruction techniques to cater to varying proficiency levels.
7. Community and Family Involvement: Recognize the role of families and communities
in supporting language learning. Encourage home language use outside of the classroom
and foster partnerships with parents and caregivers.
8. Respect for Language Rights: Uphold learners' language rights as stipulated in South
Africa's constitution and educational policies. Advocate for the promotion and
preservation of home languages as part of cultural heritage.
By considering these aspects, a home language teacher can create a supportive and inclusive
learning environment where Intermediate Phase learners can develop their language skills
effectively while appreciating their cultural identities.
