Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Supporters believe that teaching children in their native language will help build or maintain a sense of identity among ethnic or racial minorities and will help with reading comprehension and the acquisition of basic English skills. Opponents believe that such programs are harmful because they separate groups from one another and discourage students from mastering English well enough to function successfully in the larger society.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Between 1972 and 1982, the study that evaluated the Emergency School Aid Act found that desegregation worked when 1) resources were focused on attaining goals, 2) administrative leadership was outstanding, 3) parents were more involved in the classroom and 4) staff promoted interracial attitudes.
