[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Math is taught in Spanish?!?! I would think that takes away a lot from the lessons.[/quote] No. The students do quite well with math in the immersion language. I will admit that one flaw in the program is if children have difficulty with school in English, they have even more difficulty with math and science in the immersion language. By 3rd grade, and especially 4th, the majority of students are quite proficient with the language, but there are always a couple (sometimes LD) who struggle with it an quite honestly would be better served receiving math and science in English. I would consider putting my own elementary aged child in the immersion program where I teach, but he attends PWCS.[/quote]
