From the author, about Tina Springs into Summer / Tina se lanza el verano

"Bilingual education is a fact of life throughout the world.  In the United States, schools are struggling, within limited budgets, to serve the needs of all their pupils without compromising the quality of education offered.  Not the least among those needs are books to which children of varied cultural backgrounds and language skills can relate. From my education and experience as a teacher and therapist, I recognize that children learn best when they enjoy learning and can associate personal experiences with their lessons.

"In addition to being used in a formal school setting, I believe that Tina will also be of interest and value to parents of children in a mixed language household, and to those whose children are learning Spanish or English as a second language."  Read an excerpt.


 

De la autora sobre Tina Springs into Summer / Tina se lanza el verano

La educación bilingue es una realidad cotidiana en el mundo. En los Estados Unidos las escuelas luchan por cubrir las necesidades de los alumnos sin disminuir la calidad en la educación, a pesar de contar con escasos presupuestos. Una de las necesidades más apremiantes es la de proporcionar libros con los cuales los niños de culturas diversas se puedan identificar. Partiendo de mi experiencia como maestra y terapeuta, sé que los niños aprenden mejor cuando pueden establecer paralelos entre sus experiencias personales y las lecciones que se les imparten.

Además de su potencial como instrumento educativo en las escuelas, creo que Tina puede ser de gran interés para padres de familias en cuyos hogares se mezclan el inglés y el español.
