Once you register, you may only be able to log on to the site using Explorer. Excerpt from the article's introduction: Interest in foreign-language instruction in preschool is growing, both among parents and early-childhood educators trying to meet the demand. The interest, though, comes at a time when some districts are scaling back on such programs in the elementary grades in order to spend more time on reading and mathematicsthe subjects currently tested to comply with the federal No Child Left Behind Act. "On one hand, we have parents clamoring for this," said Nancy Rhodes, the director of foreign-language instruction at the Center for Applied Linguistics, a Washington-based nonprofit organization that conducts research and provides training and information on language-related issues. "But on the other hand, we have No Child Left Behind emphasizing reading and math. We are feeling that pull."
