[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks, all. One other question if anyone has any comments about how things are done in their school. For CLS it looks like we have a choice between a Spanish option and no spanish. For a preK kid with no previous spanish exposure, would it be too much to both be starting school and try to put them in the spanish group? Basically, is it more class, or do they give the kids time to run around and play as well?[/quote]

It seems like a gazillion years ago (ha!) when my kids did CLS language after school (Murch). At the time, Murch did not have foreign language instruction. The kids managed the after school part just fine, and they did get time to play on the playground and run around, but double check your program specifics. I wanted to add, that after this daily after school experience through elementary and the normal Deal IB language program, my DCs tested off the charts at private high school placement, literally, and so took a different language in high school which now gives them two foreign language proficiencies. So in my experience it also was effective language instruction for my kids.[/quote]
