This Read Across America Week, we’re celebrating the power of bilingual literacy and how learning to read in both English and Spanish benefits children academically and cognitively.
Why Bilingual Literacy is Essential
✅ Stronger Reading Skills – Reading in two languages reinforces phonics, vocabulary, and comprehension, helping kids become confident readers.
🧠 Cognitive Benefits – Studies show that bilingual children develop better memory, attention, and problem-solving skills, enhancing overall brain function.
🗣 Improved Communication – Learning to read in Spanish strengthens listening and speaking skills, making it easier to acquire additional languages in the future.
🌎 Cultural Awareness – Exposure to Spanish books and stories fosters an appreciation for different cultures, broadening students’ perspectives and global understanding.
