In this chapter, reposition is introduced as a component of the five Rs.The critical aspect of repositioning is to provide Emergent Multilingual Learners (EMLs) with extended opportunities to assume the complexities of the hybrid language. Repositioning occurs when students have multiple experiences with the science concepts in a lesson. These lessons not only provide students with opportunities to assume the complexities of scientific language but also make it visible by engaging students in talk about hybrid language. We recommend reading Chapter 1, which is included in this book selection and serves as an introduction and overview to Chapters 2–10. A materials list, teacher background information, safety notes, and standards are provided. This book selection also includes the Table of Contents, Dedication, Preface, About the Authors, Our Stories, References, and Index..
