Thank you kindly!

My daughter is great at math and reading but horrible at writing and spelling. We only have 2 years here. On one hand the Spanish immersion would be beneficial for her obviously but is it enough to have her almost fluent? Or do I emphasize her to "master" the basics of writing and spelling before trying to tackle a Spanish Immersion?
