Starting school with limited or no English skills may make keeping up with reading and vocabulary challenging. However, there is an intervention program called “Bridge of Stories” that is helping build these kids’ language skills in both English and their home language. “She speaks at school, so she only speaks English, but at my house she speaks Spanish,” said parent, Ana Guerrero de Vargas. AdPreschoolers placed in a Spanish-English intervention group had better vocabulary and storytelling skills in both languages than those who did not receive the bilingual storytelling intervention. “There’s intentional overlap between the Spanish and English lesson so that we can kind of build a bridge between the two languages,” stated Spencer.
