my name is Marianne. So I currently
have for children that are in the deal
I program we started his program four
years ago and I'm with our oldest two is now
in third grade for the first year we started in
kindergarten I was a little hesitant
cuz I wasn't sure how well a five-year-old
would take to learn Spanish but
from then until now she has made
such an improvement with her language for
understanding her writing
skills has absolutely Florida
considering we don't speak Spanish at home so
it's amazing to see her understanding this
new language
I think it's safe to say that
most of us recognize that there
are benefits to being bilingual it
reach beyond the classroom and in
today's interconnected World particularly here
in the southwest part of the United States
local businessman will call you having
an employee on site to
speak to that person the population
of prefers to converse and do business
in Spanish what do you want
why would you want
modeling what when there is an opportunity to be filing
she would come keep up
the language so I was learning my letter
Fountain Spanish right along with her and
I would find myself saying the words with
her and we were able to learn together which was another amazing
part that I wasn't expecting
