Students – Multilingual Families Lab Familles Multilingues

MLF Lab went to camp!

We partnered with ABC HSS to provide a dual-language ++ program in their summer camp. In our little group of children, more than 10 languages were spoken: Punjabi, Somali, German, Harari, Tagalog, Tamil, Bambara, Urdu, Malayalam and French.

Dual-Language Stimulation in YEG during COVID
