The Mainstreamed Environment in Canada: Is There a Place in French Immersion for Learning Disabled Students?

Majhanovich, Suzanne

Canadian Journal of Special Education, v9 n1 p67-72 1993

This article reviews 30 years of experience with French immersion second-language instruction and concludes that most children with learning disabilities can benefit from the experience of a bilingual (immersion) education. For children with language handicaps who need to learn a second language, bilingual (immersion) instruction is better than traditional French instruction. (DB)
