[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is two-way immersion, and how is it different from what is done now?[/quote] Two way immersion actually treats both languages as equally desirable and equally worth learning. So ALL kids will receive instruction partially in Spanish and partially in English, and kids who are heritage speakers of either will gain proficiency in both. The research shows that it works best for quickly turning monolingual kids (either Spanish or English) into bilingual kids. [/quote]
