Chapter One Introduction
1.1 Research Background
In the first decade1 or two after World War II, the introduction of foreign languages in the elementary school in the U.S.A. , and of primary school French in Britain, and similar developments in other countries were part of a widespread search for ways of “improving the effectiveness of language Education by taking into account into timetable of language development in childhood” (Stern, 1983, 363). The past decade has seen significant increase in foreign language programs for young learners. In many African and Asian countries, primary children have long been taught French or English as preparation for their use as a medium of instruction.
