45. Learning another language helps you speak and write your own |

correctly. I know, it's counterintuitive, but it's true.
I think Spanish should be offered from kindergarten on up, give kids a basic working vocabulary. Kids who are Spanish speaking would be mainstreamed a little more quickly in a system where both languages were being taught.
It's funny how the people who worry themselves silly that taking time for Spanish will take time away from the other academics think taking time to teach bible crap won't take the same time away.
