The Amsco "Discovering Languages" series is perfect for very young profoundly gifted children who are already reading and writing in English, and who wish to explore one or more foreign languages using materials at the elementary level, before selecting a language for further in-depth study. Although the series is designed for grades 3 to 8, young profoundly gifted children ages 4 to 7 will enjoy this series a lot. These materials are equally at home in public, private, or home schools, or in individual tutoring situations.
