Are you a teacher, administrator, or parent involved in bilingual or dual-language education? What questions do you need answered? Please email me at info@elsaberenterprises.com with your question and we will work to answer you.
Here are some questions that we regularly come across when visiting dual-language schools:
- Should my students read the same book in both languages? To answer this question, I am going to refer you to Melanie's answer over at Multilingual Mania. I couldn't have said it better myself!
- Should I do guided reading in Spanish or in English? I wrote about this dilemma on this post.
What guided reading levels do you expect students to be at throughout the year in first grade specifically?
ReplyDeleteWhat advice you give a teacher who will be in a dual language for the first time? What materials do you believe I should purchase in order to maximize the potential of my students?
ReplyDeleteDoes a teacher need to be fully bilingual in order to teach a dual language program or is an advanced understanding of the second language valid?
