EAL for children 3-4yrs old
Posted: 12 Oct 2008, 20:55
Hello I am a teacher of EAL in an International school in The
> Netherlands and deal mainly with children from 4-7yrs of age. I
> would like to know if there is research or if anybody has experience
> with providing children from 3-4yrs with EAL whilst they
> are attending Nursery Class in our School. The class is already very
> practical and the language simple but there is the suggestion that
> the non-native speakers receive extra help outside the larger class
> group for English. I would be grateful of any feedback best wishes,
> Kerry
