[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top colleges want to see 4 years of language in HS. Our kids each started foreign language in 6th, and if we had to do it over again, we wouldn't do this - let them take the elective (I think what you are calling rotation). The foreign language teachers are notiously bad, better they deal with it for 6 years than 7[/quote] Not if they get to AP, which they could do in junior year by starting language in 6th grade. [/quote] At our middle, that just gets you to AP in 12th. Spanish and French 1a is 6th grade and 1b in 7th. Our middle no longer allows 6th and 7th graders to do 1ab in one year. [/quote] Ugh, so dumb. This is because they don't want to offer 3 in MS?[/quote] I don’t know. But I actually like the option. I think the slower pace is better for most 6th graders and allows more conversational practice time. [/quote]
