		The (L1) language describes the primary or the first language of the student, and the (L2) language describes the second language or the language to be acquired.
		She suggests that dual language classrooms are formed to promote positive attitudes for students towards both languages and cultures, and that dual language programs emphasize full bilingual proficiency for native and nonnative speakers.

	Dual Language (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Studies have shown that children enrolled in foreign language studies in elementary school show an improved overall school performance, tend to be more creative, and are better at solving complex problems.

		The two most common models for dual language programs are the 90/10, where you start in kindergarten with 90% foreign language instruction and decrease by 10% until 50% is reached in the 4th grade and the 50/50 model, where half the time is spent in both languages.
