Learning a modern second language is important these days and the easiest way to learn a new language is through day-to-day life immersion. Since we can not jet off to a Spanish speaking country for that immersion experience we have been using Spanish for You!
We received the Fiestas eBook download of Spanish for You! that includes:
- Spanish for You! Fiestas eBook

I used the Fiestas program with Mikayla who is in 4th grade. We worked through the material 2 days a week as we are still doing our classical language of Latin also. This slower pace has really helped Mikayla both in her Spanish studies but also in her Latin. I really loved the attention to detail that the author has put into the program. We have tried many Spanish programs in the past but none quite suite the needs of our family for the elementary level. I am happy to say that Spanish for You! does that and beyond! I plan to finish the rest of the Fiestas program and then move on to the Estaciones curriculum. Be sure to click on the banner below and read the Fiestas and Estaciones reviews of my Crewmates.
