Dave,

I would very much like to do this and evangelize for it where I am. However……

…I’m still trying to understand how this approach, which lends itself to reflection and big picture thinking, works with rudimentary material.

As an instructor I teach introductory French. I probably teach my students the same sorts of things Oscar is learning now, and really struggle with how an individual PLE functions when the typical piece of output in the first term is (with a handful of exceptions) a few sentences long.

I’d really like to find out your thoughts on this.
