[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How big a deal is it to take a year or two off before coming back to Spanish in high school? Any strategies to help keep it fresh in-between? (My husband and I both speak Spanish at a high-intermediate level and could practice with her in the interim.) Has anyone had or known a kid who tried this, and how'd it go? My kid would prefer to only take 1 or 2 years in MS to leave room for other electives (besides band), but the elective options are thin in 6th so on one level it would make sense to do Spanish 1A/B in 6th and then do 1 more year in MS (or maybe none) before digging in and doing Spanish every year in HS, but if she's going to forget so much that she'll have to retake Spanish 1 then of course it doesn't. [/quote] I would not do this. The kid will struggle in Spanish 3 if you take a year off. I would start in 7th and go all the way through. [/quote]
