ABSTRACT
In our Tower community, we have our own language as well as the languages we bring from outside (like Spanish and English) which helped us make our own language. So, for example, someone that is not from our classroom community would not understand what insider, outsider, think twice, notetaking/notemaking, literature log and learning log mean. If Ms. Yeager says we are going to “make a sandwich,” the people from another class or room would think that we were going to make a sandwich to eat. Of course we aren’t, but that is part of our common language.
