diamond: Re: [munchkins] Spanish Literacy

Hey there -

Any chance you can list all of your links using a tiny url? (tinyurl.com) I can't get any of them to work since they spill over onto several lines, and even hand copying them doesn't seem to work.

Thanks in advance!

I have had to piece several items together to get exactly what I
want, Spanish literacy for me and my children, and I have
successfully achieved my year long goal. Learning how to read and
write in Spanish is different than English. You can learn how to
understand and speak Spanish, but being literate in Spanish can make
you a much more confident and fluent speaker, at the same time, help
with your pronunciation and accent. I also included some links to
Spanish readers and manipulative's to help reinforce what you are
teaching/learning, if you decided to use the program.

This first site http://spanishk12.com/ is the Spanish literacy
program.

This link gives you the pronunciation of the alphabet. Great
tool!!!!
http://www.spanishspanish.com/alfabeto_ipower.html
Their home page http://www.spanishspanish.com has a TON of vocabulary
and tests.

These next two are mini alphabet books and reading rods. The rods
are a great manipulative and the mini books will help build
vocabulary. Each book focuses on one letter of the alphabet. You can
study each letter book with the Reading Rods that go along with the
unit that correlates with the letter that you study in the curriculum.

Reading Rods: http://www.learningresources.com/product/reading+rods--

This is the second level of four, the first being the mini alphabet
books. You may want wait to purchase levels 2-4 to see if you enjoy
the first. As well, levels 3&4 of this program require purchasing
additional Reading Rods sets. Although, you can still use the first
set of reading rods with all, they just won't be the same color to
match the books.

These are emergent readers. I would purchase these before the second
level of the reading rods and books. They have very basic sentences
like, I see the Lion, I see the bear.
