%X This article aims to offer an understanding of the teachers' tasks in the reception classroom from their own point of view. The reception classroom is quite a new reality in Catalonia and it has been established with certain urgency because of the social demand. For this reason it is interesting to know how teachers manage communication in these multicultural classrooms and to value the usefulness of this communication for the children. The study is based on in-depth interviews with three teachers working in reception classrooms in a high school in Lleida. The analysis focuses on the impact of the teachers' specific academic background and professional experience and on their views about different aspects of their teaching practice.
