Question 2

You have three English language learners in your class, none of whom knew English before immigrating to this country: Franois (who immigrated 9 months ago and is now getting individual tutoring in English); Mei-Li (who immigrated 3 years ago and spent the first 2 years in a bilingual education program); and Maria (who immigrated 7 years ago and is now doing well in her English-only classes). Given what you've learned about the amount of time it typically takes for children to master English as a second language, which of these students has/have probably acquired sufficient knowledge of English to earn valid scores on the high-stakes test?
A) None of them
B) Only Maria
C) Both Mei-Li and Maria
D) All three of them
