[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can’t they take both? Mine did. Generally I think they should take what they like and don’t worry about HS admissions. The language 1 class moves very quickly for a 6th grader, but the Spanish 1A class moves ridiculously slowly. If your kid is good at languages and likes learning, I’d do with 1, but if you’re worried about workload with the Ms transition I’d go with 1A. One think about starting with 1 in 6th grade is that you can potentially run out in HS. Also Spanish 4 is pretty hard and so taking that as a HS freshman can be a lot as the student adjusts to HS classes.[/quote] Is there any benefit in taking Spanish in MS if kid is not very good with languages and just needs to fill the requirement?[/quote] No, wait. We did Spanish in 6th and Spanish 4/5 is really hard. I wish we waited till 7th or 8th.[/quote]
