Spanish
This came through my e-mail; just passing it along; “caveat emptor”!
Do you need a Spanish curriculum for your co-op classes? Spanish for You! grades 3-8 is a curriculum designed specifically within a homeschool co-op environment. It allows you to teach class once a week for an hour and assign homework in between with ALL the work done for you.
It is inexpensive and fun, and can be taught by anyone whether they know Spanish or not. Material is presented through interesting themes, and one theme can be used with all grades during the same year. This streamlines the teacher’s work and allows for students of multiple ages to practice at home together.
Also, students with no Spanish experience can be placed in a class with experienced students of their same grade at the beginning of a school year. Experienced students continue to progress while new students are seamlessly integrated.
If you would like to know more about Spanish for You!, please visit my site, www.spanish-for-you.net. Or feel free to contact me via e-mail at support@spanish-for-you.net. Also, Spanish for You! can be used at HOME independently.
