[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aren't these programs meant mainly to teach another language to students whose primary language is English? I have read that the younger a person is when introduced to a second language, the easier it is to learn another language. Fairfax County has elementary school programs in German and Japanese, in addition to Spanish. People in other countries begin to learn English at early ages, so it is good for English speakers to learn other languages, also.[/quote] ACPS tries to balance their immersion classes with a mix of kids whose native languages are either English or Spanish. Half of the instructional day is in English and half is in Spanish.[/quote]
