The Hebrew Alphabet, Counting in Hebrew and Colors in Hebrew
Give the gift of a second language to your child. Start Early.
The British Council lists the advantages of beginning early to learn a second language.
Among other things they argue that:
– Young children are still using their individual, innate language-learning strategies to acquire their home language and soon find they can also use these strategies to pick up [another language].
– Young children have time to learn through play-like activities. They pick up language by taking part in an activity shared with an adult. They firstly make sense of the activity and then get meaning from the adult’s shared language.
– Young children have more time to fit [a second language] into the daily program. School programs tend to be informal and children’s minds are not yet cluttered with facts to be stored and tested. They may have little or no homework and are less stressed by having to achieve set standards.
– Children who have the opportunity to pick up a second language while they are still young appear to use the same innate language-learning strategies throughout life when learning other languages. Picking up third, fourth, or even more languages is easier than picking up a second.
– Young children who acquire language rather than consciously learn it, as older children and adults have to, are more likely to have better pronunciation and feel for the language and culture. When monolingual children reach puberty and become more self-conscious, their ability to pick up language diminishes and they feel they have to consciously study [a second language] through grammar-based programs. The age at which this change occurs depends greatly on the individual child’s developmental levels as well as the expectations of their society.
