¿Qué es un programa de inmersión?
What is an immersion program? • Serves both language minority and
language majority students concurrently. • Two language groups are put together
and instruction is delivered through both languages.
• For example… Spanish Immersion here at Hedenkamp.
• The goals of the program are for both groups to become biliterate, succeed academically, and develop cross-cultural understanding (Howard, 2001).

¿Qué enseñan en el programa de Inmersion?
What is taught in the Spanish Immersion program?
• All classes are taught standardsdeveloped by the State of California foreach grade level. These standards aretaught through district-wide adoptedcurriculum available in both Spanish andEnglish. • Depending on percentages for his/hergrade your child will receive that instruction(the same in any other class), while the language may be different.
Curriculum
K.2 Students recognize national and state symbols and icons such as the national and state flags, the bald eagle, and the Statue of Liberty.
In every kindergarten class students will learn to identify national symbols.
In Spanish Immersion classes they learn the exact same facts but all in Spanish. Teachers are trained in Strategies that incorporate TPR, GLAD, Sheltered Instruction and Scaffolding to deliver information in a manner that is most comprehensible to Spanish learners.
Retos?Challenges?
Kindergarten can be a challenge for any child.
You know your child best.
The very nature of adding another language to the mix of factors for Kindergarten can be very rewarding but also challenging to some children.

Assessments
All Immersion students will be required by state law to take
the CST in 2-6th grade in English.
Parent Committment
The Spanish Immersion program is a 7 year commitment.
A language takes 5-7 years to develop at near-native fluency. While you see a great deal of
growth early on, this does NOT indicate that your child is
Bilingual and Biliterate, yet.
VideoA brief look into some of our classrooms to see it in action.
