In this article, I discuss a linguistics course that I have been teaching for the past 3 years in a multiage primary school classroom. This experience has led to work in other schools, has changed the way I teach introductory linguistics courses for teachers, and has led to the development of materials and curricula for use in K-12 classrooms. I hope the sharing of these experiences will help to effect real change in the way in which knowledge about language is taught in K-12 classrooms in the USA.
