Speedy Spanish 1 & 2 Sing-a-long Book with CD
Focusing on conversational Spanish, Speedy Spanish emphasizes words, phrases, and sentences prior to introducing grammar. This is a wonderful way to encourage elementary to middle school students to converse with neighbors or classmates whose primary language is Spanish or use it to lay a foundation for upper-level foreign language studies!
This is a Christian program with a focus on use in the missionary field. Speedy Spanish is now printed by Christian Light Education. There are two levels (years) available. Older students can work independently.
· Level 1 (updated in 2023) teaches 500 vocabulary words including numbers 1-10, months of the year, seasons, foods, and other everyday words.
· Level 2 (updated in 2024) reviews Level 1 vocabulary before teaching 500 additional vocabulary words covering foods, body parts or common health concerns, and other words typically used in conversation. Integral to both levels are memorization of Bible verses and songs in Spanish, as well as traditional church expressions or references.
Instructions are written to the student and include a suggested 5-day schedule:
· Monday (Part 1) emphasizes vocabulary.
· Tuesday (Part 2) involves sentence practice. Students read and listen to practice sentences in Spanish.
· Wednesday (Part 3) has matching exercises for Spanish words and sentences with their English translations.
· Thursday (Part 4) includes memorization of Bible verses and songs in Spanish. Bible Word Match activities are also included to enrich vocabulary.
· Friday (Part 5) is a review day, where students play a vocabulary flashcard game using the included flashcards. No answers are included. The Student Books are consumable and non-reproducible.
