There are more than seven billion people living on this planet. Nearly 6,500 languages are spoken by these seven billion people. How many do you know? Now, no one will ever know all 6,500, but wouldn’t it be great if we knew two or three? Think of the wonderful people you could make a connection with if you understood their languages. Do you know any Latvians? How about French? One of the newest courses on SchoolhouseTeachers.com is Latvian with Helena Puksta. This is a 32-week, full-year course for upper elementary through high school students. They will be introduced to the Latvian language, culture, and history through weekly video lessons, web sources, worksheets, and flashcards. The lessons begin with the Latvian alphabet and then move into words and phrases which are built upon as the year progresses. French is a course that is in its third year with SchoolhouseTeachers.com. Greg Shone, a certified French teacher and coauthor of French Essentials, brings the French language to students in elementary through high school. They will learn the pronunciation of the letters and will quickly advance to simple French phrases. The course is taught with weekly downloadable PDF worksheets and audio to teach correct pronunciation. The French course is targeted to middle school and high school students, but elementary students can learn French as well.
