Week 2 Topic:
Though English is considered the primary language in the United States, the native language of many American students is not English. This discrepancy leads to many challenges for educators in determining the best method for educating students with little or no knowledge of the English language. Some believe that the best way to prepare students to become a part of their community is to immerse them in an English-only program, while others state that students will benefit more from a dual-language program.
Read the English-only or dual-language education on pages 96-97 in our textbook and conduct research on the effectiveness of these two programs.
Based on your research, which program would you promote and support? Why do you believe your program is the better choice? Explain the challenges involved with this program and determine courses of action that could be utilized by educators to overcome these challenges
