Question 8 • Ethnic Studies Edge IC

Which description is an example of an immersion program?

Answer
A
Students take second-language classes starting in elementary school.
B
Students are taught in both English and Spanish throughout the day.
C
Students take classes in the language of their choice.
D
Students are given Spanish translations of their textbooks.

Explanation

An immersion program teaches students academic subjects through the language they are learning, rather than only teaching that language as a separate class. Teaching students in both English and Spanish throughout the day is an example of immersion. Simply taking second-language classes or receiving translated textbooks does not provide the same instruction in the target language.
