Renai,
I am still planning to homeschool my children most likely only in spanish, since I only speak to them in spanish I have never spoken to them in english and I don't want to change course, so more then not I will homeschool exclusively in spanish since they know mommy only to speak spanish to them. I am trying out the bilingual preschool to help build his communication skills. I just found out today that the curriculm they use is mostly in spanish since the children who attend don't speak english, but they with incorporate english little by little. The children have bilingual story time once a week and participate in various cultural events ie: they sing in the Latin American Festival etc. Kendra --- In [email protected], <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Subject: Enrolling my son in a Bilingual preschool > > > > > > Well I've decided to enroll my son in a bilingual preschool, he will > > start this coming August.
