Review: Spanish for You!

When we started homeschooling we decided to use a French curriculum because my daughter absolutely loves Fancy Nancy books. So I had some concern of the overlap as well. In high school I took 2 years of Spanish and 3 years of French and there are some similarities to the languages, which I thought would be confusing to her. However, my daughter (who is in 2nd grade) transitioned much better than I expected. And she was much more thrilled to be learning it than I was to be teaching it (shame on me, I know)!
As the teacher, it doesn't take a great deal of effort on your part. It is set up so that the student for them to be able to work on it independently. My daughter needed a little extra help, so I had to be a little more involved. It's also designed to be taught for 4 days a week, however we cut it back to two days a week which is how we were doing our French.
Overall, I feel the curriculum was extremely easy to use and adaptable to any situation. My favorite part was that the lesson plans were laid out for me. There was a slight issue with the audio files organization, however, those have been addressed and reorganized for future users!
