[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I’m wondering what’s the point for your kid if he’s already bilingual in those languages? Save the spot for a kid who really wants to learn.[/quote] Op here. DC will lose the target language and likely end up speaking only English unless we keep reinforcing the target language.[/quote] You're worried your DC will be bored if they attend but think they will lose the target language if they don't attend?[/quote] Yes, but won’t DC also be learning the ENTIRE Kindergarten curriculum? Math? Reading? Writing? Science and Social Studies? Is he already on the first grade level in everything? Since the school is excited, and they know the program better than anyone, I would bring up your concern to them. Personally, I would send him. [/quote] Op here. I haven’t seen it in action. In kinder they teach 90% in the target language but over 95% of the students in the class dont speak it at all. So I assume they must do something to try and accommodate that. And I worry DC will be bored/frustrated.[/quote]
