Common Questions and Comments

"Won't it stunt a child's English acquisition when learning a different language?"
​-Wendy

That is a common misconception. According to the course "Millions of children around the world grow up as bi- or even tri-lingual and have little to no confusion differentiating the languages. The brain is capable of learning much more than we give it credit for.""

"I really can't make the time for more curriculum."
-Eva

Instead of considering a brand new addition to your program, incorporate Spanish in the things that you already do. As suggested in the course "While it may seem that every second of your day is already planned for, there is always time to integrate Spanish into your curriculum. It may not be a formal lesson plan, but it can be during small moments of down time that every classroom has."
