You gotta be kidding me, MagiK. Swiss kids grow up TRI-lingual. Are they smarter? It's not like they give up math and science along the way. Foreign language skills should be taught much earlier. And, such skills help with the English language as well. Plus, it gives a real long-term advantage, especially in the job market. Maybe our kids aren't learning English properly, but that doesn't mean we don't teach them other things just because the English is poor.
On a side note, I heard several teachers on the radio this morning call in on a "How has email and chat room language affected your students' homework" question. Very interesting. Teachers are getting this stuff on homework assignments now. ROFLMAO? Gag me, please.
