Bilingual Education Pays Off, New Documentary Says
Video is streaming through today (but I can't figure out the link). - Bilingual Education Pays Off, New Documentary Says. Web site of the documentary - http://speakingintonguesfilm.info/
I understand the issue of bilingual issue. My view is children in the US need to be fluent in English, but they can also learn a second language that has so many positives! For example, Chinese has a lot of good reasons on why to learn it. My opinion is a lot of bilingual education was not true bilingual education which lead to the English only rules that many states have adopted. They key is having the goal of fluency in both English (a necessity in the US) as well as a second language.
