EmilyGF Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I want to supplement our spoken 2nd language with picture cards. I don't want to use word-word translation, but show, say, a picture of an elephant or a picture of a locomotive while practicing the word. Do you know of any good source for printable picture cards for this? If it is well assembled, in any language, I'd be happy to pay for it and write in my (German) words. I may assemble this myself if it doesn't exist. I don't want "Learn 50 words" or something like that. I imagine more like 1000 that we'd use over two years. If I could print all the Usbourne 1000 word images, that'd be a great start! Thanks, Emily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmmetler Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I've got several sets of Lang-o-learn cards. These are nice, photographic picture cards, with a LARGE number of languages on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Um_2_4 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I bought those trend flashcards and whited out the Eenglish and then wrote it in in the 2nd language. They have action words, nouns, tons of things to use for sentence building etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyGF Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Wow - the idea about 1000 words sounds like a lot of work but might be worth it. I'll look into the other sources, too. Any other resources? Thanks, Emily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Tick Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 We were gifted the game Hedbandz (sigh) but with a little masking tape and a marker we translated some of the cards to Spanish and have been using it as a teaching tool. There are no verbs (Rory's Story cubes - actions is what we are using for verbs) but perhaps it would be a place to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByGrace3 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 We are ding something similar and I am using the Usborne First Thousand Words book as a base. I also ordered the first thousand word sticker books and have used the stickers for many purposes and games. I created picture game cards and Bingo cards for themed vocabulary. We play memory, pictionary, charades, Bingo, Go Fish. It has been a lot of fun. I blogged about it here. There is an "overview" you can download and it has all the links to the printable game cards. http://onemagnificentobsession.blogspot.com/2012/09/basic-spanish-immersion-in-your-home.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
