Schools in Germany compared to the United States

In Germany, the schools are very different than they are in the United States.Schools in Michigan consist of kindergarten through twelfth grade. The same subjects are taught each day and class days are always the same length. In Germany, students start school around the age of six.The learn the basics of math, reading and other subjects for about six years.They have a normal teacher for the first two years, and the year after that they get more subject orientated teachers. The students then move on to an apprenticeship to learn and gain more knowledge. They also have different classes each day, their schedule is not the same day to day like it is in America. After doing more research, I realize exactly how different the schools are between the two countries.
