Gradisnik, Anthony, Comp.
This guide for parents of elementary school Spanish language students who wish to learn the language along with their children contains the following materials: (1) language learning hints; (2) pronunciation help including rhythm patterns; (3) conversation capsules (small dialogs and a selection of drawings to accompany the texts) permitting parents to converse with their children about daily household, school, and community activities; (4) useful expressions for the descriptions of the physical environment, personal feelings, and individuals, and for asking questions and directions and giving commands; (5) a list of "passwords" or expressions to accompany those the child learns in class; and (6) the words to a number of French songs and rhymes included in the child's French language training. Also included are recommendations for French books to be used in the home to supplement the child's school learning.
