Changes at "Children Learning Portuguese"

US-born children do not learn to read and write in Portuguese because Brazilian immigrant parents do not have time to teach. Other children who may be interested in learning Portuguese do not have the opportunity in language classes at school.

So children and teens can learn a second language

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Basic reading and writing classes in Portuguese at the local public schools or libraries

Youth in the community
