"The Writery"is an odd name. Who are you, exactly? The Writery <[log in to unmask]> wrote: I have been reading this list for years. I now have an issue on which I would appreciate the thoughts of anyone so inclined to comment. Briefly stated, I would like to gather some feedback re a recent movement / current trend in some school districts: the enrollment of primary and elementary education students into foreign language infusion programs. My question: Helpful or detrimental to the overall English language development, in both receptive and expressive modes, of students this young? I have my own thoughts on the matter, which I shall reserve for now. but am very interested in reading those of others here. Thanks for your insights.
