English Language Learners in New Jerseys Preschool Program Ellen Wolock Division of Early Childhood Education NJ Department of Education

Children in New Jerseys preschool program More than a third of children in low- income districts speak home languages other than English Across the state approximately 21% of children speak home languages other than English

Our policies and practices come from research on supporting the development of preschool English language learners

Some of the research that drives the divisions preschool policy… Young English language learners need support of their home language or they will lose it Loss of the home language can have a negative impact on learning Bilingual and dual language programs are most effective for English language learners and do not negatively impact native English speakers Espinosa, Linda, Foundation for Child Development Policy Brief, No. Eight, January 2008

The DECE position: Support preschoolers home language and scaffold English Bilingual or dual language programs are optimal Supports are always in the context of a comprehensive, developmentally appropriate curriculum

The Practices We Promote

Rich Environments

Easy access to writing materials in all parts of the room

Inviting places to read with materials that use the languages of the children

Labeling in home language and English

A meaningful way to develop print awareness

Using symbols build independence

Rich interactions and activities

Providing interesting experiences and introducing new concepts to support vocabulary development, early reading and other skills

Peer conversations that encourage verbal expression and introduce new words during a science activity

Developing early reading skills in home languages

Teacher-child interaction to extend concepts and ideas based on a childs painting.

Daily routines can encourage verbal expression and communication while supporting social skills

Using songs and instruments to introduce rhymes, sounds, and vocabulary

Common professional development areas Supporting home language in context of the curriculum and routines (no push-in, no pull- out) Maximizing resources– using bilingual paraprofessionals to facilitate home language use Creating language arts literacy-rich classrooms
