My daughter who is just four will be starting to learn to read and write in Spanish next week. She cannot read in English her first language yet, although she recognises some letters and has some phonemic awareness. Should I continue at home with the English or wait until she has grasped the spanish. I dont wont to confuse her and am worried that my low level Spanish will not enable me to help as I could in English.
