Foreign Language
- The child has learned how to count from 1 to 10 in the foreign language.
- The child can use question words such as "what," "where," and "how" to ask simple questions.
- The child has learned the names of basic colors in the foreign language.
- The child can identify and describe objects using the correct color vocabulary.
Continued development in the foreign language can be enhanced by incorporating more interactive activities. For numbers, encourage the child to practice counting and doing simple math problems in the foreign language. For question words, have the child play a game where they ask each other questions using the question words learned. For colors, create a scavenger hunt where the child has to find objects of different colors and name them in the foreign language.
