[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not true about getting less immersion if you send your kids to compacted math. The compacted, or advanced math class is held during the 1st period in the middle school, where the kids go there first, THEN to their elementary school for immersion instruction. So the kids get to school at the same time as their classmates, and have a full day of immersion instruction-in this case our kids are in the French immersion program so it is full immersion.[/quote] This depends on the school. At Rock Creek Forest compacted math is offered at the school (they don't bus to a middle school), but what they do is combine the immersion kids who qualify with the kids who qualify from the English program. This may be because having separate sections would be too small. The class is held during the regular math period -- and offered only in English, so yes, the kids in that program end up getting less Spanish that year.[/quote]
