Abstract

This session presents three models for teaching dual language learners. The first paper describes a classroom-based approach in a second grade that incorporates home experiences into school using e-books.

The final paper describes how one school in Abu Dhabi is implementing a national policy that calls for dual language English-Arabic instruction.
