Family Sticker Chart

Under each theme, there are videos, flashcards, audio recordings for pronunciation, and songs.  A great way to spend time with your child is to go on my website and learn as a family.  We play numerous games with our picture flashcards that can also be played at home.  Have your child be the "el profesor/la profesora" (the teacher) and watch their leadership skills soar!  For an extra bonus, make a sticker chart with your child to track your progress!  Once each family member has earned all his/her stickers, your child will give you a "gift of time" as a reward (helping out with laundry, dishes, gardening, etc)!
