Simultaneous and Sequential English/Spanish
August 27, 2008
I was looking up info on simultaneous and sequential English/Spanish language learning. In grad school we were told that it is better to learn Eng once you have the first lang learned pretty well because having a good grasp on the first language, helps in the acquisition of the second language. Being that my program was not bilingual, I’m wanting to understand this better. What are your thoughts on this?
Welcome Back - Fall ‘08
August 25, 2008
Hi Everyone, Bilinguistics took the summer to promote our new book, SMILE for Infants and Toddlers, present to the Early Childhood Intervention programs in The State of Texas, and most importantly catch up on vacations. We are happy to welcome Mary Bauman and Adrianne Arrieta-Morales, two incredible bilingual SLPs. We also want to wish Kara Anderson luck in the PhD. program in Dallas. She will continue to contribute to the Bilinguistics initiatives as she pursues her doctorate.We are scheduled for over 12 presentations this fall and spring and will continue to provide services and trainings throughout the Central Texas school districts and ECI programs. We have designed a great series of workshops for the bilingual SLPs in the Region 13 area and we hope for strong participation throughout the region. We are currently updating and expanding our website so staytuned for current BLOG posts, presentation listings, new CEU courses, and new products. We are looking forward to an exciting year!
