Oak Knoll Mom Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Two questions: 1. What pronunciation does Minimus use 2. How much prep is it for a teacher who is using it in a co-op setting? At a Mom's night out where we're wondering these things. Thanks! Quote
abbeyej Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 1. What pronunciation does Minimus use Classical 2. How much prep is it for a teacher who is using it in a co-op setting? Well, when I teach a class for Minimus, I put a fair amount of prep into it. I suppose one could do less, lol... ;) There are 12 chapters, and I teach 30 classes. Each class covers half a chapter, and every fifth class is review. I prepare flashcards, worksheets to be done at home between classes, projects or group games to play most weeks... So I end up putting in several hours of work each week writing worksheets, creating games, coming up with projects that coordinate with the grammar or cultural stuff we've been doing... Quote
Oak Knoll Mom Posted July 16, 2008 Author Posted July 16, 2008 Thank you for getting back to me so quickly--I was hoping you'd answer! I think we've decided to go with Minimus. I may have some more questions for you once I get the book in my hands.:) Quote
