A yearlong course for grades 3-4 and up

The Spanish for Children Primer A Program teaches upper-elementary students this dynamic language using the pedagogy and structure of our popular Latin for Children series combined with immersion-style dialogues and vocabulary. The Spanish for Children series emphasizes grammar and the parts of speech as vital tools for the correct speaking and understanding of Spanish. The texts also use lively chants to aid memorization of both grammar and vocabulary.

Spanish for Children Primer A (Student Edition) contains 37 weekly chapters, including 8 review chapters. Each chapter contains a memory page, a grammar page, a fun worksheet, and a quiz. Students will learn over 290 commonly used vocabulary words. The engaging and conversational text explains grammar concepts such as verb conjugation, tenses, and noun genders and helps teach students to construct Spanish sentences well. All teaching and explanation provided in the student edition is written at the student’s reading level.

A special note from Spanish for Children author Julia Kraut: Our goal with the Spanish for Children series is to teach students "why." We focus on the rules that govern the language and spend a large amount of time comparing Spanish and English grammar. In many ways, this series doesn't teach just Spanish—it teaches how to go about learning a language in general. This is different from the "scenario-focused" approach of many other textbooks, where students learn vocabulary that relates to specific subjects and then learn to discuss those subjects. While students using SFC do memorize vocabulary each week, using groups of related words to talk about various subjects and scenarios is "the icing on the cake"—the "cake" being an understanding of the patterns of the Spanish language, and knowing which word belongs where and why. This is a consumable item.

Presented primarily in English, Tin Bot intermixes common Spanish words into each sentence. Students will help solve the mysterious case of the dognapped canine in this fun story about a bilingual robot private eye. This reader provides vocabulary exposure for the beginner student and practice for the Spanish learner. The "spliced" format allows Spanish vocabulary to be tucked within the English-language story, using the correct conjugation or form of the word to fit into the English. This 64-page reader is tied with the vocabulary from Spanish for Children Primer A.(7845)

Spanish doesn’t have to be dry and boring, and it will certainly come alive in Tin Bot!

Hard-Boiled, Hard-Drive Detective Episode One: Dognapped!

Tin Bot is the best private ojo (eye) in the city, though a bit hard up for some dinero (money). Helping out a lady in distress, he discovers an underworld of kidnapping, ransom notes, and criminal sardine cans. If only that were the least of his problems! What really gets on his nerves? Los perros (Dogs)! Especially an ugly dog named Cooper . . . who was just dognapped!

How can parents and teachers feel more confident teaching problem solving? How can we help students enjoy and master problem solving? After teaching problem solving for more than 35 years, the author walks students through easy-to-understand instruction and fun, engaging problems. This book uses entertaining problems to build real confidence in problem solving and improve critical thinking.

Problem solving is engaging in any problem or activity that requires a series of thinking skills. For example, a good word problem in mathematics requires some thought process beyond a quick arithmetic solution. A “problem solving” problem can be a puzzle, game, brainteaser, logic problem, or any word problem that engages the reader in using a strategy. Becoming a good problem solver takes time, but it’s a skill that can be developed with practice.

POSSUM is a dice game in which players use six dice to spell out words and earn points by filling categories on their scorecards. The categories are arranged by parts of speech. Players have to make nouns, verbs, and adjectives. They also try to make 5- and 6-letter words of any part of speech. Players get extra points for using less common letters in their words. In addition, players can have fun by making up one word—a POSSUM word—as long as they can use it in a sentence and name its part of speech in that sentence. Points are recorded on a scorecard, and the player with the most points at the end of the game is the winner. Includes an instruction sheet, 6 letter dice, and 100 scorecards. For 2–6 players.
