It is a sepearate CD from the Easy Spanish program. It comes with the written words and coloring pages. I have used the coloring pages, but they were not that thrilled. I like the words for my own knowledge since I know very little Spanish myself. I really like the songs.<br />-PhyllisPhyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217282962233011656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35650510.post-89998670755952384062009-11-13T20:07:57.387-05:002009-11-13T20:07:57.387-05:00Putting the DVD's on the Spanish Language sett...Putting the DVD's on the Spanish Language setting.

By doing that, I have a steady supply at home of stories that she already knows!walkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046468024103932112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35650510.post-75210554830852507752009-11-13T08:57:50.639-05:002009-11-13T08:57:50.639-05:00Tammy, I was going to ask you the same question ab...Tammy, I was going to ask you the same question about WHAT listening activities are you able to find.<br />That are simple that is.

I want to do a story or two a week and then move to another one when Pamela seems to understand. Today, to work on pets, I grabbed some of her Beanie babies and described them. She was able to pick the right ones. I said a sentence with both fruit and color and she got all but one.walkinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05046468024103932112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35650510.post-58921173985265028582009-11-12T16:59:25.879-05:002009-11-12T16:59:25.879-05:00I did this with my PDD-NOS daughter with wonderful...I did this with my PDD-NOS daughter with wonderful results. We graduated from listening to Spanish, and went on to grammar. At that time we added Greek, and then a couple years later Latin. We only did small bites of each -about 10 or 15 minutes. It was wonderful for her language skills all around. (She still adores Greek especially.)I highly recommend it. I am now doing the Spanish songs with my 3 boys ages 5-12. I would do this with my autistic 15 year old, but music and song is very painful for him, so I can't do it with him. I was tempted to bipass the songs phase with my 12 year old and go directly to grammar, but I resisted the temptation. Why rush it?...there is plenty of time to catch grammar once the auditory piece is more firmly in place. Thanks so much for this wonderful essay and encouragement on this! Keep up the wonderful work!<br />-PhyllisPhyllishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09217282962233011656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35650510.post-83553716812271646482009-11-11T19:46:40.437-05:002009-11-11T19:46:40.437-05:00Tammy, upon your recommendation I have been having...Tammy, upon your recommendation I have been having my dd listen to the ONLINE FREE SPANISH website daily. I have just been letting her listen to what ever she wants each day. I'm thinking that maybe I should have a PLAN. DO you have a plan with Pamela, such as listen to the names of fruits one week and the names of animals for another or how are you doing it?poohderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16850097213864424870noreply@blogger.com
