By changing the title to emergent bilingual can only help change everyone’s mindset around the learner.

The term emergent bilingual is a great term to use because not only is english a new language but L1 to the learner is also being learned equally on a day to day. Wed, 28 Aug 2019 18:11:57 -0400
