Do they teach math in Spanish also?
By what grade most kids are able to read/write in both languages?

In all of the TWI schools, core math instruction (solid hour block) is taught in English in grades K, 2, and 4. There is a supplemental 30 minute block (generally fluency, application problems, reteaching, etc.) in Spanish. In grades 1, 3, and 5, the core math instructional block is taught in Spanish. These students have an additional 30 minute block of math in English. Additionally, science is taught in Spanish in grades K, 2, and 4, and social studies is taught in English. This is flipped for grades 1, 3, and 5. Science is taught in English and social studies is taught in Spanish. Reading and writing instruction happens daily in both languages. Students spend about two hours a day with their English teacher and two hours a day with their Spanish teacher. This is consistent among all of the TWI schools in MCPS.[/quote]

Does anyone know by the chance, what are language requirements for a second grader enrolling in the school? Thanks! [/quote]
