Help your child learn German


Learning a foreign language can be intimidating, but German for Everyone Junior: 5 Words a Day is designed to make learning a new language engaging and fun for children! This introduction to German includes a mix of nouns and verbs taught through fun illustrations of a wide range of everyday objects with new words clearly labeled. 

Over a year, your child will build up a vocabulary of more than 1,000 German words. Each week, 20 new words are introduced and learned over four days. At the end of the week, kids can test themselves using the cleverly designed flaps that hide the words they just learned to help ingrain them in their memory. This German teaching guide includes accompanying audio, so kids can also practice their pronunciation as many times as they want.
Category Description for __ For Everyone Junior

You WILL learn new vocabulary with this series. You will NOT, however, be fluent after one book. That said, what a low-key way to explore new languages with your young learners! Students can use the books independently using the free audio component and the self-correcting flaps. You really do need the audio for correct pronunciation as there is no phonetic help shown with the words. There is a list each day to interact with and pages are clearly labelled with week 1-day 1, week 1-day 2, etc. You use the inside part of the front and back covers as flaps to test yourself on the pages. It's a clever design. You could use something like this with a program such as SongSchool Spanish or Whistlefritz French to expand your repertoire. But I quite like the idea of using them as language exploration to see if your student would like to take a deeper dive into a language. Consumable. ~Sara
