[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless it's true daily immersion (WIS or one of the public/charter bilingual/immersion options), I don't think it really matters much.... [/quote] I've seen this sort of comment on DCUM before ("only daily immersion is effective at teaching language"), and it always strikes me as odd. I'm sure many of us have taken non-immersion language classes, and gotten quite effective at learning the language. I'm sure a true immersion approach would very effectively teach language, but saying that's the [u]only[/u] effective way for a child to learn a second language seems to go to far. Just seems counter-intuitive to me. Maybe I'm misunderstanding these claims?[/quote]
