[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child started immersion in preschool 3, with two years of full immersion.  Now in first grade, she tests at T (fifth grade) for English, and M (early 2nd grade) for Spanish.  I don't think that immersion has had any affect on her reading level in English at all, but I am very happy that she is starting to be Spanish-literate as well.[/quote]
PP, I'm curious, how is her dual language school doing at meeting her needs? Is she grouped with other 1st graders at her reading level (if there are any at T level)? Or is she in a group with older kids? Do you worry about whether she's being challenged? [/quote]

Just for the record, a T reading level is equivalent to the end of 3rd grade, not 5th (according to

[/quote]

???  According to the chart, T is 5th grade.[/quote]

Whatever.  I'm the original pp above, and I don't care one single bit.  The point is, the kid is doing fine in English despite attending a bilingual school.[/quote]
