CrunchyGirl Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 At the beginning of each chapter, the student is supposed to break the new vocabulary words into syllables complete with marking short vs long. I understand this would be crucial for parsing out pronunciation. But if you have the DVD's (and thus access to learning correct pronunciation), is there a reason to continually do this beyond cementing the rules? I have a child who doesn't do tedious repetition well (mastery and move on). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tranquility7 Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I'd just do read through the vocab orally together, before watching the DVD. If you/she has questions, discuss it and figure it out. Then watch the DVDs to check whether you were correct. The activity is worth-while, IMHO, but changing it to an oral one makes it quick and painless in comparison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
