Lead: The lead opens with very important information, such as the work of English Language Learners in the US. The lead could also include the meaning of bilingual education and how this is represented not only in the United States but in the whole world. For example, how families can expand bilingual and bicultural skills and how in some cases, it could include more than two languages. I also consider it fundamental to include the role of bilingual schools play in the acquisition of a new language and the differences between programs.

Some resources that you could add are:


 * Scaffolding language development in immersion and dual language classrooms.
 * Immersion education: international perspectives

Content, Tone, and Balance: The draft is being developed. I see the cultural aspect you have incorporated; However, I think you could also add more information regarding the meaning of bilingual education and the places and models contributing to its expansion.
