Children social interaction is particularly beneficial for child development, and the right environment can help children develop strong language skills, creativity, empathy, communication and confidence. Interactions help children express their thoughts  ask for help, and learn from adults and from one another. Dual language learners need many opportunities to  talk with others so that they can have the exposure they need. At the same time children need the opportunity to express their home language. When the children are exposed to the English and home language vocabulary words on a daily basis ,they won't be confused. If you are not sure what certain words mean you can ask for help from your co worker or even children who do speak the language. Leading fun chants and themes can encourage children build memorization in the classroom and eventually build other languages.

1.Families first .The families of young dual language learners are an important resource for classroom teachers. It is important for families to help  children to maintain their home language .Teachers can help families by adding to  their classroom learning environments in a variety of ways, including inviting them to share stories, songs, or foods from their culture. Asking families to share materials shows a value and respect for the families and their cultures. If specific cultural materials are not readily available, teachers can create these with the help of families using photographs and other materials from the children’s homes. It is also important to have  family interests and interviews because it will have families talk about their children's "home languages talents and interests. This will also build a better connection with the families.
2.Environmental support- In order to build families trusts we would have to build a safe and nurturing learning environment . It's amazing how little adjustments can go a long way, such as changing colors for certain children and families. Even bringing objects that children can relate can help them feel comfortable.
3. Instructional support Integrates POLL strategies such as Anchor, text, Key vocabulary words,intentional message,song/chant, extended activities and parent community/ Engagement.

All teachers want to support dual language learners in their classrooms but what kind of strategies can teachers make to help support the children?Poll (Personalized oral language learning )has three types of assistance which is family engagement, environmental supports and conversation and interaction. It is important to build family engagements in the classroom because it gives you a better understanding of every child's background and needs. Having personal meetings with families is beneficial because it is the beginning of the teacher student relationship and collaboration. Communicating with families with languages they are most comfortable with can go a long way. Even if you don't speak the language you can learn little words one step at a time. On going communication can give you the perfect opportunity to encourage parents to volunteer in the classroom. This will help children feel even more  comfortable in the classroom .Another way for children and families to feel comfortable in the classroom is creating a warm and safe environment. When you implement the children and families home languages it shows that you respect their culture.
