The Primers are divided into 32 weekly chapters, including 5 review chapters. Each lesson introduces new vocabulary words alongside a Spanish concept, starting with verbs and nouns in the first unit and moving on to number, gender, adjectives, pronouns, verb conjugations, and more. The lessons are short (about 4 pages each), plus weekly worksheets and quizzes. Lessons begin with Spanish phrases, a conversation, a chant (to aid memorization of grammar and vocabulary) and a vocabulary list. Then the lesson discusses the concept being taught, followed by short exercises and a quiz. Each level teaches 290 of the most commonly used vocabulary words in an engaging, conversational way. A helpful glossary is included in the back of the primer. Picking up where Primer A left off, Primer B emphasizes grammar and the parts of speech as tools for understanding and speaking Spanish. Also included are expanded dialogs, stories, songs, and chants. Primer B contains 32 weekly chapters, including 6 review chapters and an end-of-book review. The text teaches 290 commonly used vocabulary words, plus a review of vocabulary from Primer A. Students will continue mastering grammatical concepts, such as verb conjugation, tense, and noun gender. Weekly worksheets and quizzes are included, and students will enjoy sharpening their Spanish with dialogs, stories, and a puzzle that involves searching for treasure in Mayan ruins.
Publisher's Description of Spanish for Children Primer B Text
There is a distinction between just learning common words and phrases—the approach of many Spanish programs—and knowing the language well enough to communicate correctly, fluently, and accurately. The Spanish for Children Primer B Program is the second in the series and emphasizes grammar and the parts of speech as vital tools for correctly speaking and understanding Spanish. This program also includes expanded dialogues, stories, songs, and chants.
Spanish for Children Primer B (Student Edition) contains 32 weekly chapters, including 6 review chapters and an end-of-book review. Students will learn 290 commonly used Spanish vocabulary words in addition to weekly review of vocabulary from Spanish for Children Primer A. All teaching and explanations in this student edition are written at the student's reading level and emphasize a continued mastery of grammatical concepts. Dialogues, stories, and a puzzle about searching for a Mayan treasure keep the workbook format of this book lively and entertaining.
Spanish
for Children is a
friendly beginner Spanish program for students between about 3rd
grade and 6th grade. Parents do not need to know Spanish themselves.
There are 2 levels, A and B, each covering a traditional school year. This is
an excellent lead-in to high school Spanish.
Primer A (Level 1) has 37 weekly chapters. Each chapter has a memory page,
grammar page, fun worksheet, and a quiz. Students learn common vocabulary
(including nouns & gender), conjugating verbs, conversation, and
constructing sentences. Here is our complete package. You can add the novel, Tin Bot to your Primer A experience!
It’s a mystery that slowly immerses students into Spanish.
Primer B (Level 2) has 32 weekly chapters that emphasize grammar with expanded
dialogs, stories, songs, and chants. Weekly worksheets and quizzes are
included. Here is our complete package.
Consumable Student Worktexts are called “Primers”. In place of the pronunciation CD, you
have an access code to digital files.
The Answer Key is a copy of the worksheet
and quizzes in the Primer with the answers filled in. This book
does not include every page from the Primer - only those with
answers.
Instructional Videos are available if the instructor is not familiar with Spanish.
Each lesson (approx. 15 min each) features the author, Julia Kraut. The
students chant their weekly grammar work.
