a measure of a childs ability to pick up a language??
the reason i ask is this, DS's school have picked the top 4 in the class to study spanish after school. Now DS wasnt picked and yes i am a bit peeved, only because it would be nice for him to have had the choice. He does well in all his classes he doesnt struggle and when I asked him if he would have liked to have done it he said "well yes, my friend X is doing it" (not the best reason in the world i agree but hey)
I just question thier selection process, I suppose they have to draw the line somewhere but at the same time i figured that intelligence isnt a measure of how well you can pick up a language...or am i wrong??
I seriously am not a pushy mum btw, i just thought it a shame that not all the children in the class were given the same opportunity
