This is a very common question from touring families. 为了让他们的孩子成为一个成功的学习者，家庭并不需要说西班牙语. This is where the process of immersion is especially valuable. Because your child is being spoken to  in Spanish throughout their school day, 他们得到了足够的语言接触，不用在家里使用就能掌握和掌握西班牙语. 当然, practicing at home or with other Spanish speakers is always helpful, 但研究表明(我们的经验也证实了这一点)，那些在家里很少或没有加强西班牙语学习的孩子，在浸入式学习项目中取得的成功与那些在家学习以西班牙语为母语的孩子是一样的. 此外, 家庭和照顾者不需要说西班牙语来与老师和其他工作人员进行良好的沟通, 要么. We will always speak to parents & 护理人员在英语.

This is one of our most-asked questions. 家长们想知道，当他们开始在浸入式课堂学习时，他们的孩子将如何跟上进度，这是完全可以理解的. 你的孩子会明白在课堂上发生了什么，并像他们学习母语一样自然地学习西班牙语.

Your child’s teacher will:

• use lots of gestures 和 visual prompts including h和 和 body cues, 变形, 和 facial signals to make sure all children in class are able to follow along easily, 和
• utilize stories, songs, games, 和 play to make clear what is being conveyed.

While all of these methods are used to encourage underst和ing Spanish, 在必要的时候，教室里会有一位英语老师进行翻译和澄清.

Not at all; we teach in both 语言s to ensure that our students excel in both.
