Grade Two Children's Emergent Writing in English and Hebrew in a Dual Curriculum School.
Chapman, Marilyn L.; Michaelson, Myra
Canadian Journal of Research in Early Childhood Education, v7 n2 p127-45 Nov 1998
Used multiple case studies to examine the writing of eight second graders in a dual curriculum school with Hebrew as an additional language. Findings revealed some letter and directional reversals, mostly conventional word boundaries, and invented spellings in both languages. Evidence suggests that learning to write in an additional language is an emergent process similar to that in English. (KB)
