Why Bilingual?

DID YOU KNOW?  

According to the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association: "Most children have the capacity and facility to learn more than one language. Researchers say that there are advantages to being bilingual. These advantages might include:
*Being able to learn new words easily
*Playing rhyming games with words like "cat" and "hat"
*Breaking down words by sounds, such as C-A-T for cat
*Being able to use information in new ways
*Putting words into categories
*Coming up with solutions to problems
*Good listening skills
*Connecting with others..."
