About APPInep SIG

In 2000 APPI created a support group for teachers who work with Young Learners, in Portuguese primary schools and preschools. This group called at the time APPInep (núcleo de ensino no primeiro ciclo e pré-escolar, formerly known as núcleo de ensino precoce) is now the APPInep SIG (Special Interest Group).
