Dual language

Sagun Khadka Ms. Scarola English 1113 May 6, 2015 The Dual Language Program Bilingual education is an educational system in which students are taught in both their native and international language. It has been practiced in various forms in different countries of the world. There are still conflicts between people in case of bilingual education because some people prefer bilingual education whereas, some refuse it, depending upon their own thoughts and reasons and they are still arguing about it

English language instruction significantly (Mei Lin, 2015). With this in mind the educational practices taking place in today's schools become a center of focus, what should be taught in the classroom and what programs can give the best outcome. "Substantial evidence exists to support dual language (DL) education as a viable and enriching method of supporting high levels of academic achievement for both English language learners (ELLs) and English-speaking students.

students may not be able to keep up with how fast the English language is becoming the standard of the world. They could fall behind along with their country if they do not live up to that standard. EFL programs vary in English speaking countries and consist of different methods of teaching students to learn the language. One of these methods is the dual-language method, which consists of learning English alongside a student’s native language. This is not always ideal for parents, who “advocate English-only

Being part of the Dual Language program is an experience I cherish because of how it molded me into the person I am today; someone who appreciates their two cultures. I was apart of the Dual Language club in high school, that was a club for bilingual students and for Dual Language students.

The Dual Language program exposed me to a culture embedded in my roots, for that I

I observed a 3rd grade dual language program at Lincoln Elementary School in Blue Island, Illinois. The philosophy of the program is to provide a well-rounded educational foundation that supports children’s academic, physical, and emotional growth, success, and commitment to others.

The

will be in different stages of language development, and the educator must accommodate for each of these students. Magruder, Hayslip, Espinosa, and Matera (2013) state, “The US Census Bureau projects that by the 2030s, children whose home language is other than English will increase from roughly 22 percent to 40 percent of the school-age population” (p. 9).

Even after the multitude of worksheets, Spanish movies, and dreaded oral assessments many students find themselves unsuccessful. However, outside of a couple high school language classes, students are not obligated to utilize Spanish in order to complete a grueling college entrance exam, file taxes, or acquire groceries, for we live in a predominantly English speaking country. Conversely, Spanish speaking students are asked

This quarter I am continuing my observations with Heather Cyrus from Barbour Dual-Language Immersion Academy. She is a unique second grade teacher for Spanish and English speaking students. In my prior fieldwork assignments, I have not met another teacher who has been so ahead of her peers in evolving the classroom for successful, 21st century education. Barbour runs a dual immersion program for Latino children from kindergarten through eighth grade. Starting in the lower grades more Spanish instruction

The instruction of this lesson took place in a 2nd grade Spanish dual language classroom. The total number of students that were present that day were 27 students. I videotaped two out of the three lessons taught, but decided to choose the first video because of the level of student engagement.
