- Bridging:
strategy whereby children tie English words to concepts known
in their first language.
- When
first learning a second language, children fall back on first
language structures to communicate at a more complex level.
- Learning
to label known objects: one of the first ways children learn a
second language.
- Learning
words and phrases in a second language is much easier when their
meaning is understood.
- Ease
in acquiring meaning in the second language depends upon how Bridging
is fostered in the classroom.
