Los gobiernos de toda Europa se han propuesto fomentar el aprendizaje de lenguas extranjeras desde el inicio de la escolarización, por lo que en los últimos años han surgido numerosos proyectos de educación bilingüe.

Para llevar a cabo estos proyectos resulta de vital importancia diseñar una metodología apropiada para la enseñanza de lenguas extranjeras en niveles educativos iniciales. Una de las principales características de la enseñanza bilingüe debe ser la coordinación entre la enseñanza de la lengua y la de los contenidos, puesto que los niños pequeños tienden a aprender de un modo holístico.
