[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wait…your kid is currently in a school in the US and he is NOT being tested on his ability to read in English , but in then “immersion” language? Sorry, but that is stupid and why would you be ok with this?[/quote] Op here. It’s an immersion school. Public. The research they have shared with us is that by the end of elementary, they will be reading in both languages on grade level. The skill set reading in the target language transfers to English. In our state they do the standardized tests in the target language. [/quote] We have the opposite problem in our Immersion school. The tests are all in English and not the Target language. Doesn't work out for every subject. And yes by the end of elementary it's mostly leveled out. In later years they find that reading actually gets stronger in both languages because or the duel language support.[/quote]
