Thanks for this, Doug. Unfortunately the "science" people generally refer to in the SoR push also leaves out current research & best practices for students learning English or in bilingual programs. This is a HUGE oversight in California particularly & I think will support a pendulum swing toward English-only policies. Part of my last role was working on a theoretical framework for biliteracy, to try to fill in some of those gaps.
