[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the statement above. Problem is that the IB language teachers can't do the heavy lifting alone. As long as the feeders stick to immersion light and DCI families aren't helped, encouraged or required to pursue immersion studies by the school, IBD language studies at DCI can only be so serious. My DCI kid's spoken language skills are good mainly because we've been taking her to weekend heritage classes in MoCo on weekends and summer immersion camps for years. We've found that standards for reading and writing in DCI language classes are reasonably high but standards for speaking and understanding are low. DCI students are allowed to coast on speaking, which works for AP exams but not IBD.[/quote]
