In this secondary research study, we investigate the text/identity/curriculum work enacted in a primary university-school project with third-grade children in Quebec who were engaged in inquiry into children's rights through bilingual text production. Drawing on sociocultural perspectives of language and identity as well as translanguaging, we examined both the product and the process of identity text production. Analysing classroom interactions and children's bilingual production using discourse analysis, the findings show how teachers' cross-curricular efforts in creating translanguaging spaces and shifts with students' emerging bilingualism and critical understanding of children's rights issues provided spaces for identity and knowledge re/construction, effectuating new curricular opportunities, inquiries, and language/literacy learning. This process-oriented view of identity text production points to the mutually constitutive nature of identity/text/curriculum work, inviting a dynamic, non-linear understanding of text production, and calling for reflexive attention to power relations in classroom interactions for greater possibilities for meaningful identity and knowledge making.
