LANGUAGE LEARNING IN ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS

In terms of globalization it is necessary to learn foreign languages and therefore they are on the school curriculum. Generally foreign languages are taught at basic schools although there are some kindergartens where preschool children are introduced to a foreign language. When children first acquire a new foreign language their reaction to the encounter is various mainly because it is more or less unlike their native language. The foreign language has very often different structures rules systems etc. What happens is that some children easily cope with the language some need time to do so and some struggle with it from the beginning. Those who start to have difficulties with the foreign language can be either child who has a learning disability or those who do not have any disability but still show learning difficulties in the foreign language.
