A Comparison of Three Elementary School Alternatives for Learning French: Children At Grades Five and Six.
Cziko, Gary A.; And Others
This is the third and final evaluation of three French-language educational programs presently being offered to English-speaking children enrolled in the elementary schools of the South Shore Protestant Regional School Board in Quebec. The three programs under study are: (1) a French-as-a-second-language (FSL) alternative, taught for one period each day in an otherwise conventional English program where English is used as the sole language of instruction; (2) a Grade 4 French immersion program in which a pupil follows the traditional English curriculum from Kindergarten to Grade 3, but as of Grade 4 is introduced to French as the sole language of instruction for the year; and (3) an early bilingual program where French is used as the sole language of instruction from Kindergarten through Grade 2 and with both English and French used as separate languages of instruction for different school subjects from Grades 3 through 6.
