[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Send your kid to one of the Immersion schools.  Then she'll be doing math in Spanish, so she'll need to learn an entirely new vocabulary during math class.  It's a great cure for "my kid already knows this".  [/quote]

Hahha.  They are learning to count to ten not hundred because it’s in a foreign language.  They learn to count to 100 in like third grade.  And then you can drop out of the program like everyone else when you realize your genius mathematician can’t meet basic on grade level math. [/quote]

Well, my older immersion kid never had math in English before middle school & scored very well on all the assessments… aced geometry in 8th grade. Younger kid still in immersion elementary also scores very well on math tests (in English & Spanish).

They don’t “only learn to count to 10 because it’s a foreign language.”  They do the exact same math curriculum as any APS ES, just in Spanish.

I swear, some posters here will use any opportunity to belittle the immersion program.  It’s kind of pathetic. [/quote]
