And Then There Were Two Children and Second-Language Learning

How do children learning English as a second language become bilingual? How do children's individual learning styles affect the task of leaning English? Particularly when they have special needs? What strategies do children adopt as they go about leaning English? What role does children's native language play in the process of learning English? How can schools design and adapt programs to meet the needs of ESL students? In this new revised and expanded edition of And Then There Were Two, Terry Piper answers these questions -- and more. Her practical insights into the language-learning process have made this book a popular resource that provides invaluable encouragement and guidance for parents, classroom teachers who wish to know more about second language learning, and experienced ESL teachers alike.Piper, Terry is the author of 'And Then There Were Two Children and Second-Language Learning', published 2001 under ISBN 9780887511004 and ISBN 0887511007.
