The Real World: Bilingual Children
Before and After Reading
Before Reading
The title is really interesting because I am bilingual. I was raised to speak in Spanish at home but in school I had to speak English. At first, it was really hard for me to understand English. I believe that parents should teach their child two or more languages.
After Reading
What do you know?
I know that there are many people who are bilingual. A parent forgets that knowing two or more languages is really important. This makes it easier for the child in the future.
What do you want to know?
I like to know is why public school does not put more programs of learning different types of languages.
What did I learn?
I learned that it is really important to know at least two languages. That way it could help to communicate with others.
Three W's Questions

Children begin to learn to more languages in school and at home.

I'm also bilingual and found it a little hard to understand English because i was thought Spanish first. What made it worst is that i was in a bilingual class were the teacher spoke both Spanish and English which sometimes made things more confusing thatn what it should have been. I wouldn't mind learning a few more languages I think it's cool to learn more than one language. I wish that I can speak my parents native language that would be awsome.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you as well, being raised up with a spanish family, I was taught spanish first and then when i first started school that was when the English language was introduce to me. It was quite hard to learn the language like you but I manage it. I believe it is very important for parents to teach their children atleast two languages instead of just one.
ReplyDeleteI also agree. If I ever have kids, I deffently want them to know two or more languages. Because I believe it's imporant to try to communicate with everyone in the world.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. It is a big advanced that children speak more than two languages. It could help them in the future.

ReplyDeleteHey Kimberly
ReplyDeleteI do agree that parents should teach their children more languages. I had the same struggle in learning english. One thing that spabish parents have is that they only like to teach their kids their language. Yet they should be expoused to other ones as well, to make their lives easier.
