Roadrunner Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Is there a good phonics based program that teaches kids how to read in French? I am doing it randomly at this point. My kids are 6 and 4. The goal is to have them read simple children's books by next summer. Thanks!!! Also anybody knows where I can get cartoons in French?

Monica_in_Switzerland Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 I have the Leo et Lea books, which I really like the looks of, but have not yet started. They are syllabique, which is a form of phonics. We won't be starting though until my DS is reading a bit more confidently in English- probably in six months or so.

Roadrunner Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 http://www.leolea.org/index.php/CP/ Thanks. I found it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 I need more help. I checked Amazon.ca and there are tons of different Leo et Lea books. Can you please tell me which ones I need to get started? It's confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monica_in_Switzerland Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 For Leo et Lea, I got the following- Methode de Lecture CP 1 De La Lettre au Texte CP Cahier d'exercises 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monica_in_Switzerland Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 Oh I also got Texte et Expression. According to the books, these two are the only things needed. I plan to get the guide pedagogue too though, as it lays out lesson plans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadrunner Posted July 15, 2011 Author Share Posted July 15, 2011 Thanks. I think Amazon.fr is the only way of getting Leo et Lea new additions. I am going to pretend there are no shipping costs and go for it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElizabethB Posted July 15, 2011 Share Posted July 15, 2011 If you haven't purchased yet, there is a free option, you can get free PFDs of: Manuel de lecture and Manuel d/ecriture http://www.lire-ecrire.org/conseils-pratiques/manuels-scolaires/manuels-de-lectures-et-decriture/manuel-cp-de-la-librairie-des-ecoles.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't figure out what to do. I followed www.lalibrairiedesecoles.com link and it's letting me buy. Nothing free :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Betania Neuman Posted July 16, 2011 Share Posted July 16, 2011 See if you like http://www.theeasyfrench.com My family is bilingual English/Portuguese and we also study French. Le Francais facile is the best I could find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They send a monthly e-mail in French that I can't read, it is not a lot of spam for the PDFs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beaners Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I would encourage you to look into www.ProfessorToto.com before making a decision. You seem to favor this program very heavily. I believe that all of your posts have been about it. Did you use it for both French and Spanish? I had checked the website when I first noticed that my library carries it, but the loud beeping noise in it drives me crazy. I can't imagine using it on a regular basis. So what other programs do you like and use for homeschooling bilingually, particularly reading in another language? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emubird Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) Try this link: http://www.lalibrairiedesecoles.com/librairie/histoire-geo,4 and scroll down to get to the things that are free online (or at least some of them?) I couldn't find whole books, but maybe I'm missing them. If clicking on them doesn't work, you could try signing up by following this link: www.lalibrairiedesecoles.com But it took some poking around to get into things. I think I clicked on a button that said something like "creer un compte", but now that I've signed up, it won't let me back to that page to check on what it was. ETA: ok, maybe this will work: http://www.lalibrairiedesecoles.com/inscription Edited July 24, 2011 by emubird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mommymilkies Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 This is embarrassing, but how did you download it? I can't figure out what to do. I followed www.lalibrairiedesecoles.com link and it's letting me buy. Nothing free :) Sorry for bumping an old thread, but it's asking me for a Numen to sign up. I have no idea what this is, but I'm sure I don't have one. Is there any other way to sign up for the pdfs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lune Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 A Numen is the ID number of a teacher in the French public school system. French editors won't give you access to the teacher's manual PDF (guide pedagogique) if you don't have a Numen. But you can preview the student book ( http://www.lalibrairiedesecoles.com/librairie/histoire-geo,4 - click on "Feuilleter ce manuel") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
