[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Monolingual DC language immersion parents I talk don't get it. They think that picking up and retaining languages is a snap for kids. [/quote] You must not have talked to us because no that is not how we think. We talked extensively to current parents at immersion schools outside of DC and also adult friends who attended language immersion schools growing up before we made the decision for our DC to be at a Spanish immersion charter. We know going in that it would be challenging. We have engaged outside support in addition to summer immersion camps, plans for vacation travel to Spanish speaking countries, and once DC is older, summer camps abroad in Spanish speaking countries. We are far from the only family doing this at our charter.[/quote]
