Texas District Has High Hopes for Dual-Language Program
Celburne Times-Review (TX)
Cleburne Independent School District believes it's headed in the right direction with Dual Language Enrichment Education curriculum of professors Leo and Richard Gomez. The district will find out for sure with state-mandated TAKS tests in two years, but the Gomez & Gomez program is about more than TAKS testing. It's also about young Spanish-speaking and English-speaking students learning a second language while becoming increasingly proficient in their first language.
My favorite part of the site is definitely the topics from A-Z. The topics are extensive and the advice is amazing. I use this stuff in Australia and recommend it to other teachers here!
