[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on your child and what your school's offerings are. Some schools offer full-year Spanish 1A in 6th, full-year Spanish 1B in 7th, then Spanish 2A/B in 8th. Others allow you to take full-year beginning in 6th grade. The caution I have is to look at when you would get to Level 3 of a language. If it is taken in middle school, it has to be Honors and that's when writing comes into play. It is no joke of a course, and some students are just not ready for it in 8th grade. You also have to find out if your middle school offers Level 3, or if your student would be bused to the high school for the course. Personally, my kids started language in 7th grade with full year Spanish 1A/B and spent 6th grade with a different elective.[/quote] Totally agree. Spanish 3 is a big leap. We chose Spanish 1a for 6th[/quote]
