Hi Polar! yeah that is what my husband says, i.e., couldn't he just type... I don't know. He tried Spanish in first grade and he just couldn't keep up with the writing. And that was 1st grade. I just feel like he would be overwhelmed and with all of the conjugating, etc... I want him to continue in his advanced math and language arts. I just have a really bad feeling about it. He is going into middle school but isn't required to start taking it until next year (2nd year of middle school) so I am just exploring options right now. It is nice to hear your DS is handling it well! Gives me hope
