The SCVi Spanish Dual Immersion program
serves grades K-5.


 

What is Dual Language Immersion?

Dual Language Immersion refers to teaching and learning in two languages. Learners are taught 50 percent of the instructional time in Spanish by a native Spanish-speaking facilitator and 50 percent of the instructional time in English by an English-speaking facilitator.

Learners share the same curriculum and project-based opportunities as their peers and have exposure to the same state standards while receiving instruction in both languages. The Spanish-speaking and English-speaking teachers will collaborate on teaching all subject material.

Why Language Immersion?

  • More than 40 years of research consistently documents the power of language immersion programs to help learners attain high levels of second-language proficiency.
  • No other type of instruction, short of living in a second-language environment, is as successful.
  • Young children especially thrive in this type of instructional environment.
