Abstract

AbstractThis discussion describes a collaboration between a high school for recently arrived immigrant and refugee youth and a local college. Across 6 weeks, college tutors read a wordless graphic novel, The Arrival (Tan, 2007), with newcomer students to support oral English language development, to develop interpretations, and to invite personal connections. This discussion addresses tensions and lessons learned from welcoming newcomer students to share sensitive personal stories, such as their migration stories, in English classes.
