[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Call it what it actually is: a gimmick. [/quote] IDK. Our third-grader is fluent in a language no one else in our family has spoken for generations. Doesn’t seem like a gimmick to me![/quote] And what did they miss learning in English? It catches up with them in middle school. [/quote] Our 3rd grader is the same. Didn’t miss anything in English, above grade level. The English is too easy and slow and he doesn’t need as much repetitive exposure as kids who are on or below grade level. He can spend that time learning another language. School comes easy and the “hard” subject for him is the language.[/quote] MCPS stopped teaching basics like grammar, spelling, and vocabulary. That's why it's easy.[/quote] They are all taught in immersion![/quote]
