TitleDallas Kindergartners Adjust to Bilingual Approach
Body
This DallasNews.com article provides a compelling description of how younger students adjust to their first school experience and a bilingual program at the same time by watching the other students for cues, asking classmates for help, and eventually checking out books from the library in both languages. This program, in a community that is 33% (and rising) native Spanish-speaking, features alternating days of instruction in Spanish and English with no duplication of lessons.
