Like I said before, people can go ahead and teach in the vernacular that dominates their region, but eventually there must be some kind of common standard so we can comminucate across regional and subcultural lines in the same country.
And I still maintain that AAVE is English. The "E" stands for English!
Very small children are also fully capable of absorbing two languages simultaneously.
AAVE also evolves so quickly that any structured "curriculum" in it will inevitably be somewhat behind the curve.
