[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure. It should be for about 2 hours a day. Definitely more than other subjects but not half the time. Eventually it's the same length as other subjects. My 2nd grader is learning a 2nd language for about 1 hour a week and some want to do away with this. How much time do kids spend on a language in other countries?[/quote] In lower elementary grades, they spend 1/3rd of the time on English, 1/3 on native language and 1/3rd on Math. We did have arts and once a week. Music was not offered in school when I was growing up. They introduce environment science and social studies in either 2nd or 3rd grade. I think formal science starts in 4th grade.[/quote]
