[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP question — if a kid joins in K, are they going to be hopelessly behind their K classmates who got the language immersion in PK there? Also, how did you decide b/t French and Spanish? [/quote] We have a kid in K who joined in preK with no knowledge of their immersion language and they were quick to adjust and integrate with kids who started in PS. Now in K there are a few new children who also did not speak a word of the immersion language and based what I have seen during the first few weeks of online learning they were doing fine. The teachers always switch to English if the kid has no idea what is going on and then they repeat in the foreign language. At school children speak English to each other so I would not be too worried about your kid being lost. In terms of picking the language, we picked the one that gave us a better vibe when we visited. We did not care much either way and are happy with our choice. [/quote]
