Islamic/Public/French Immersion school

Re: Islamic/Public/French Immersion school

**thanks…i just read the first post. prolly missed it :frowning:

back to the topic.

i think French Immersion is of no significant help to the child’s future unless u wanna settle down in Quebec. my niece went to French Immersion from grade 1 and she did her High School with French Immersion. she was fluently bilingual. now, she lives in Ontario and she has NOT used French ever after High School. it was a COOL thing to enroll children in French Immersion in late 80’s. She had hard time getting into that immersion class because they had only 16 spots and there were like 40 kids whose parents wished them to enroll in French Immersion. then, 8 years later, when my nephew wanted to go into French Immersion there were not enuf students to have a French Immersion class. only 7 kids were interested while they needed at least 16. my point is that the need and the euphoria for French Immersion dwindled rapidly. now in my town they do NOT even offer F.I.

so, i think it’s NOT gonna help the at all to send to him/her to F.I.

as far as Islamic Education is concerned, u can teach basics at home and try to establish an Islamic environment in ur home and make a way of life to teach Islamic things ALL the time when u speak to the child. just a lil thing at a time…keep giving small doses of Islamic teachings 24/7… :slight_smile:
