[quote=Anonymous]We had a kid start in APS immersion with no background in Spanish at all. They disliked immersion all of kindergarten, stating that they didn't understand anything. The beginning of the year was especially hard and stressful. Their Spanish absolutely exploded in first grade and now as a second grader they have whole discussions in Spanish. It's amazing. They now love immersion and love learning in Spanish. I would try not to judge in fall of kindergarten--it takes a while to get over the learning curve. See where your student is at the end of 1st or beginning of 2nd. As for outside support, I'd try to find some way to keep up Spanish learning over the summer, perhaps with a Spanish speaking nanny or babysitter. I'd try not to take the summer off from Spanish.
