[quote=Anonymous][quote=Khamy][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College garden has foreign language class as part of the PYP program, Beall will not have that. That is the only curriculum difference I can think of. [/quote] As a former CGES parent, I can assure you that my kid got nothing from the instruction. It was randomly scheduled, nothing came home about what they were learning or doing during that 30 minutes one day a week. I always felt that they could have made it meaningful - teach colors, foods, numbers, action verbs, etc. The instructors were "on loan" from China as part of the PYP program, so they are not MCPS teachers. [/quote] Same experience. During parents' day at school I watched a Chinese course it was really interesting but my children quickly forget what they learned as they don't practice at home.[/quote] Same here. My kids got nothing from the foreign language requirement at CGES except to realize they don't like Chinese.[/quote]
