Abstract
The focus of this response to Charity Hudley and Christine Mallinson’s article, ‘“Its worth our time”: A model of culturally and linguistically responsive professional development for K-12 STEM educators’, is to underpin a pedagogy that encourages and provides opportunities for the use of non-standard language in the description and practice of science. I discuss this within the context of Jamaica and provide an alternative way of science teaching, one which promotes Jamaican Creole as a mode of instruction for classroom talk and printed material.
