[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wish 2/3 of my kids had repeated Spanish 2 in 9th grade. The MS instruction just really stinks. The HS teachers basically acknowledge this, and have to spend a ton of time in the first month trying to get kids on the same page and figure out where the gaps are. I think it really sets kids up for failure, because they never learn a lot of really critical grammer and syntax concepts. (Plus they mostly have really horrific accents.) I'm not sure what the HSs think about this, but I would encourage it. Also because they expect you to take 4 years of language in HS -- if you are already in 3, that puts you through to AP in 11th or 12. If you're a kid that is struggling in a language because you odn't have a good foundation, that is just miserable.[/quote] Any idea why the MS language classes tend to be worse than the HS classes?[/quote]
