[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Foreign languages usually start in[b] 6th or 7th[/b] depending on the middle school and where the child is reading wise. Many (or all?) elementary school offer FLES after school. I can't say I have heard rave reviews of it but it is something.[/quote] Way past what all current research says is the best time to start teaching a second language. I'm glad it worked out for you, but I can honestly say you are the only person I have heard say that taking a language classes in middle and high school made you fluent. That pretty much never happens. MCPS is crazy to wait this long to belong instructing our kids a second language. [/quote] Um I don't think I used the word fluent in my post. I was just stating what was offered in MCPS.[/quote]
