[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forgive my naïveté, but can the teacher give the kids the same texts in Spanish or whatever dominant language there is? Or just easier assignments in English? Heck, just keep them on their phones and their mouths zapped?[/quote] You might think that providing native language texts can be a bridge to learning content of a text, but we have students with several native languages in one classroom and their levels of literacy in home languages can vary. Literacy in home language predicts the ability to learn a second language. [/quote]
