Different languages same words

Traditional schools often treat foreign 

language as a chore — memorizing lists of vocabulary out of a 

textbook. But language can also be a bridge between people.

When we teach our children about world languages, we are teaching 

them empathy, culture, and connection: people all over the planet 

have different ways of expressing many of the same human feelings. 

Here is how we scale the concept of global communication from our 

two-year-olds all the way to our high school seniors.
