Immersion reading.
German kids living abroad, on Zoom, reading out loud with me. School isn’t in German, so the reading is the part that slips.
A lot of these kids understand everything at home and then go quiet when the page gets harder, or when they have to answer in a full sentence. We read a stretch. We talk about what happened. We untangle the words that snagged. Then we read on. They hear a whole story, and they have to use the language themselves.
The book depends on who’s in the group. Tell me the ages, and whether they still speak every day or mostly understand. I won’t drop a little listener into a chapter book the others are already halfway through.
This hour is for reading. It isn’t the whole school week. If you want German planned into the week at home, or a co-op needs a German teacher, that’s the homeschool page. Other groups, adults included, are under group lessons.
The first conversation is free. Tell me about your kids and we’ll see if a reading group is the right fit.
