[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haven't they spent only half the amount of time in English as all the other children their age? Mandarin and English don't even share an alphabet. The cognitive benefits of a second language have been well established, however it takes until approximately 5th grade for some of that to begin to show up on standardized tests. [/quote] True but it's same situation for children from the Spanish immersion schools and you don't see the same 3rd grade dip. Then again - Janney. One year doesn't mean very much. Gotta watch year over year. [/quote]
