Alec and Jyotpreet

Scottish Schools 2nd Level

Available for over a year

Alec and Jyotpreet are Scottish children who speak both English and another language. In these three editions of 'Welcome to My World', we get to drop in on their lives. They describe what it's like to be bilingual - and we'll learn a few words. 1. We join Alec as he teaches his dad to speak Gaelic, and introduces us to some of his favourite Gaelic words. His mum tells us why she thinks it's important to speak Gaelic. 2. Alec takes us around the annual F猫is in South Uist where Gaelic-speaking children gather to take part in activities like singing, drama and playing musical instruments. Afterwards there's time for a quick dip in the sea at Eriskay. 3: Jyotpreet speaks Punjabi and English. She tells us how speaking two languages can be very useful, and we join her as she takes part in the Nagar Kirtan procession in Glasgow. Presented by Ruth Chalmers Producers Uzma Mir, Gregor Reid, and Ruth Chalmers Composer Tom Urie Educational Consultant Gillian Campbell-Thow Welcome to My World is a Turmeric Media Production
