Even Jeremiah who is only 2 has learned words with Flip Flop Spanish! Just last week he grabbed a flashcard from the pile, held it up, and said, “Me Gusta” ! And he was right. We were all so excited. And he was so proud. The program is designed in such a way as to allow the student to pretty much work through the lessons themselves and then have a session where they can make their sentences and have a conversation with you, the parent. It is interactive and includes audio CD’s that allow the child to hear the proper pronunciation.
The Flip Flop Spanish set retails for $99.98 and is great for all ages from “3 to 93” as the website says. The set includes three color coded sets of flashcards, 4 CD’s, a white board paddle with a marker, and a teacher’s guide to help you along. For older students there are optional writing assignments and grammatical concepts sprinkled throughout the lessons.
The interactive photograph flashcards have the Spanish words written on the back to help students quickly begin to put sentences together and to see the spelling of the words that they are learning. The photographs help the visual learner as the CD’s help the audio learners! Just another aspect that makes Flip Flop Spanish great for the whole family to do together.
We have thoroughly enjoyed our time spent in our lessons three to four days a week for the past few weeks and I can’t wait to enjoy the rest of this Spanish program with my family. During the scheduled “break weeks” I plan to get a few Spanish movies from our local library, teach the children a simple song in Spanish and of course review our flashcards.
