For children who are working to learn English as their second language, we offer support in the context of social play and classroom activities that encourage them to maintain their first language while learning English. We have also developed a partnership with UCSB's Department of Linguistics and Department of Education whereby bilingual UC Santa Barbara undergraduate students work on developing and implementing teaching activities with dual language learners at the Children's Centers, with the aim to support the children in maintaining their heritage languages and develop their dual language skills.
