Supporting Emergent Bilingual Children in Early Learning From the Education Development Center (EDC):"Across the United States, young children’s first learning experiences outside the home often happen in child-care settings, and many children come to school as emergent bilinguals (i.e., children who are exposed to two or more languages, also known as dual language learners). Research shows that learning multiple languages is very beneficial for development, yet few early child-care educators know best practices for supporting the learning of more than one language. This checklist, which is based on research, will help those who want to support children’s bilingual learning within a rich literacy and language classroom environment." Document
Supporting Families Receiving a Diagnosis of Down Syndrome The purpose of this interactive tutorial is to provide current knowledge about Down syndrome, as well as the communication tools to adequately support families and prospective parents at the point of the initial diagnosis of Down syndrome at birth or in utero. This program is designed for obstetricians, pediatricians, family practitioners, geneticists, or related medical practitioners learning about Down syndrome and the key elements of providing a diagnosis to help communicate more effectively with patients.
