A colleague just told me that current research proves that English Language Learners with a Spanish L1 learn to read faster if we teach them how to learn to read in Spanish first. This is not my experience in teaching Reading successfully to ELLS. It this is the case; what is the research? or is this research posted on the What Works website? Who knows maybe I am missing something by not teaching them in Spanish for a year first.
