  11. Expectations of the program • Please remember that each child learns at his/her own rate. • They may feel overwhelmed at the beginning; however, this feeling will be short lived. • We will work very hard to ensure that your child has a positive experience on their journey to learning a new language.

  12. How to help your child • Ask your child to talk about their day. • Ask questions. • Read to your child or listen to your child read (20 minutes a day) • Eventually, your child will bring home books in French, even if you don’t understand, you can still encourage your child to look at the pictures, make predictions, etc. • If you have any questions or concerns please contact me as soon as possible.
