[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always find it interesting that all the families who aren’t native speakers are confident that their kids speak “tons” of the target language. How are you confident of this? How do you know your preschooler is “fluent”? [/quote] My preschooler’s teacher only speaks to our child in Spanish and our teacher says DC understands everything.[/quote] Trust me, they don't. But that's ok, they're only in PK. They get the gist because that's how it works. They may know one word, and respond to the gesture and expressions and tone. But that is how language is slowly acquired. It's not a problem although don't assume they really understand each and every word.[/quote]
