'Click on \"SHOW MORE\" to see LINKS TO SPECIFIC SONGS AND STORIES WE CAN USE AT HOME!  How can we help our kids make the most out of their Dual Language Immersion at school, if they\'re learning Spanish?  Give them lots of comprehensible input at home (familiar songs and stories they can listen to over and over again), give them tools and language to help lower their affective filters (the anxiety that can impede learning) and help out the team by also making effort ourselves and showing how much we value language and our children\'s teachers!  A quick overview of Stephen Krashen’s approach:  http://esl.fis.edu/teachers/support/krashen.htm  SONG IDEAS (Here are some songs and artists that are fun to check out and listen to over and over again at home!)

It shows effort and is a natural part of the learning process.   Take risks! That\'s how we learn!  It\'s normal and human to feel overwhelmed, especially when we are learning a new language.   Breathing is a tool that helps us relax and think more calmly: Inhale four counts in through the nose, exhale four counts out through the mouth.   Have FUN: be a detective looking for clues as you try to puzzle together what the teacher or book or song is saying!  We can do hard things.   SHOW EFFORT TOO!  Here\'s where you can sign up for free Duolingo accounts: https://www.duolingo.com/log-in   Cognates (cognados) are words that sound almost the same in Spanish and English and mean the same thing: if you are learning Spanish yourself, during Spanish language portions of presentations, see how many cognates you can find! (diccionario, direcciones, comité)'
