What Is Immersion Education?
Children learn a foreign language more adeptly if they are "immersed"
in that language. At JSIS, from day one of the kindergarten year, our kids spend half
the day learning core subjects like math and science entirely in a second language.
- For example, at JSIS, a child may learn social studies and science in Spanish in the
morning, and math and language arts in English in the afternoon.
- The immersion teachers speak only in that language.
- This enables the child to work toward complete proficiency in the second language.
