[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it depends. We know a family where one of the kids picked up reading/writing in English fine, the other needed a tutor in 4th/5th grade to catch them up. No diagnosed LDs or anything.[/quote] This was our experience exactly. We did the full range of testing but no LDs were diagnosed. Kid just needed extra help to catch up in English. This is within the range of normal and I don't personally feel this is a reason to not try immersion. Assuming there is no actual learning delay - which will be a concern whether or not the child is in the immersion program - they will catch up eventually, at their own pace. [/quote]
