[quote=Anonymous]My kids are older but they also did full immersion and we aren’t native speakers. While I didn’t have a pandemic to deal with, I will say- keep the faith. They will seem to “lose “ their second language every summer or long break. We also bemoaned the English that only increases as you get to higher grades. There are also some teachers who speak way too much English imo. But. But. That second language is in there, don’t worry. Make them read in Spanish/French every day. They will retain it and keep up when they get back to things. My kids have acted as tutors in Spanish for younger kids- maybe you want to hire a HS Spanish speaker to hang over zoom with your kids for two hours every week over the summer. Maybe make all screen time in Spanish. Anyway, I’m sure this is hard with the shutdown, but keep the faith. It’s super cool that my kids share this language that my husband and I don’t even speak! It’s such a gift. [/quote]
