rieshy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I would love to hear about the French program that you are using! Nallenart with my 4th and 6th grade children. It's not "amazing" but I'm pleased how much the kids have learned. I do add in some grammar instruction and other ideas/activities to keep it interesting. Actually, I add in a lot of grammar instruction and constantly compare it to English and German, so that French is actually serving as more than a foreign language curric. but also as a springboard for decoding grammar in general. The website is a nightmare to navigate- but I order the supplies as files rather than deal with shipping. We started it at the beginning of last Summer and have done books 1, 2 and are finishing up 3. Next year I plan on doing through book 6.

SuperDad Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Um, raising them multilingual? That's our approach, and I must admit that it's highly effective. Though, it may not work so well if you're not fluent in French. :D I would say that three good programs to look at are Pimsleur, Nallenhart, and Breaking the Barrier. None are "WOW!!! AMAZING!!!!!", but they're all solid, good programs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rieshy Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I second Pimsleur!! It's a great program. When the kids are older they will do the Pimsleur French along with our written curriculum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
