Dear Samantha,

1.  If you go to the website of Yeled V'Yalda Research Institute, you can:
- click on the "Dual Language Policy" and check the references and bibliography p 14
http://www.yeled.org/res.asp
- check the material posted on the section titled "links" on the website.

2. Prof. Ofelia Garcia has a book that has just come out on the education of emergent bilinguals titled "educating emergent bilinguals" : I have not read it yet but Ofelia is usually detailed in her descriptions of programs and very thorough in compiling her bibliography.


3. Relevant references appear in a book chapter MaryDeBey and I co-wrote:
DeBey, M. & Barriere, I.  (2009) Globalization, Technology and the Education of Young Children: Understanding the
World in Two Languages. In O’Connor-Petruso, S.A. & Girelli-Carasi, F. (Eds.) Globalization, Technology and Curriculum. Boston: Pearsons.

Let me know if you have problems obtaining it and I will send it to you.


I hope this helps,
Best,

Isabelle Barriere, PhD

I would appreciate references on bilingual language development among young children, in education and care settings, offering bilingual programs.

My interest is in additive programs, designed  for children who are speakers of a dominant language, learning a foreign language, as well as programs for speakers of a migrant/minority language, learning a dominant language.

I will put together a list of references and make these available to others.

Thanks

Dear Michelle,
I do not know which aspects of language you are most interested in, or how extensive a paper you will be writing, but you might find my book on bilingual children helpful to get started, especially chapter 7.  The book was written for parents, but you can also find a complete set of notes for it at my website.  They will point you to work on infants and toddlers by myself and colleagues, but also by Werker,  Vihman, Sebastian-Galles, Genesee, Paradis, Meisel, Deuchar, and Leopold among others.

Raising a Bilingual Child, by Barbara Zurer Pearson, Random House, 2008 (and in Spanish, Bilingual Readers 2010!)
Notes at http://www.zurer.com/pearson/bilingualchild/Notes-newpages3.html

Good luck. (Do not hesitate to write with more specific questions.)
