Welcome to Sra. Curtis' New Online Resource Center!
"By the age of six a child has listened to his native language for 17,520 hours...based on eight hours a day for 365 days for six years...In comparison, the student in the traditional classroom in one year has listened to a foreign language for 320 hours...If we expect the student in the classroom to have the fluency of a six year old child, the student should listen to the foreign language for 55 years of college instruction. when foreign language is viewed from a time perspective, the mystery is that so much is accomplished in a highly condensed period of time." -James Asher
