French Lessons for Preschoolers and Kindergartners (Basics: Greetings, Colors, Numbers)
This is our window. I made it into functional space, where I have a high bulletin board and a low bulletin board. The middle part has a mesh (sun screen) fabric that lets good light in. We used up the two walls we had and this was a good way of making good use of the third wall. On the top, I put the colors in 7 languages (English, Spanish, Chinese, French, Portuguese, German, and Italian) and on the bottom, I posted the numbers (0-10) in 7 languages as ... View the Post

Spanish Lessons for Preschoolers and Kindergartners (Part 1)
Here, you will see lessons on: THE VOWELS, NUMBERS (1-10), ZERO, GREETINGS and THE ALPHABET. I am currently teaching Spanish and French in our homeschool co-op (ages 1-5) and additionally Mandarin Chinese to my children. The only thing I stress is that I make sure they notice and know which language we are working on at the time. They switch gears rather easily and do very well. Even those who do both French and Spanish with me (on different days) haven't had a problem. I ... View the Post
