Learn French Through Fairy Tales Cinderella Level 1 (Foreign Language Through Fairy Tales) (Slangman Kids: Level 1)

Learn French Through Fairy Tales Cinderella Level 1 (Foreign Language Through Fairy Tales) (Slangman Kids: Level 1) Review



Each fairy tale starts in English, then slowly MORPHS INTO FRENCH

Begin with LEVEL 1! This book will teach your child 20+ new French words in a fun, fast, and truly easy way! Here s how it works...

* An English word in the fairy tale is circled with its French translation in the column.

* From that moment forward, the French word (written in red) will be used throughout the rest of the story... and it will be used again and again in context!

* As the fairy tale progresses, more and more French words are added like a big language train gathering words along the way.

* The new words are repeated throughout the story helping to reinforce understanding.

* By the end of the book, the child has easily learned 20+ new French words in context!

It's easy! And remember... each level uses words taught from previous levels...so you ll want to continue with the next levels. By the end of the last level, the fairy tale will be written almost entirely in French - and it will be easy to understand EVERYTHING!

****************************************** Included: Audio CD with narration, sound effects, & fully orchestrated original music
**Composed, arranged, and performed**
by Slangman David Burke!
