Resumen

La presente investigación reporta la habilidad de realizar cuestionamientos críticos de niños monolingües y bilingües de 5 a 6 años. Esta investigación emplea el paradigma de cuestionamiento crítico de Bloom para explorar si los niños monolingües o los bilingües son más eficaces para generar preguntas de pensamiento crítico en dos historias. Una de las historias es sobre una niña olvidadiza y la otra sobre un caracol que anhela lo que no posee. Los hallazgos tienen implicancias para los docentes que trabajan con preescolares monolingües y bilingües. Los niños bilingües superaron a los monolingües en la historia sobre la niña olvidadiza y los niños monolingües superaron a los bilingües en la historia del caracol. Los resultados indicarían que los niños monolingües son mejores en el pensamiento abstracto y que los niños bilingües son mejores en cuanto al cuestionamiento crítico.
