[quote=Anonymous]My DS attends a DCPS language immersion school. He’s in K, and he tested at a first-grade reading level, in both English and Spanish. I have often heard that there is a delay in reading/writing skills for kids in immersion programs. It makes me think that DS might be further ahead in reading if he attended an English-only school; especially because his PK year was completely in Spanish. I’m curious to hear from others who have children in language immersion schools (DCPS or charters). If your kids had above-grade level reading skills in K, did they stay ahead in later grades (4th and above)? Did you do anything at home to help them improve their reading, especially in English?
