[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello! Does anyone know if full language immersion students have the same opportunities for math acceleration in elementary school as non-immersion students? My neighbor (whose kids recently graduated from high school) said that they were told that they should expect immersion kids to be behind in math because of learning the subject in a second language... [/quote] Both of these things can be true....most schools with full immersion programs do offer compacted math in the target language, but may tend to have fewer kids in the compacted math class than the non-immersion kids in the regular english compacted math class, since handling word problems in a second language does add another layer of difficulty.
