The Spanish for Children Primer Series teaches elementary students this dynamic language, both classically and creatively, at a time when students soak up language like a sponge. Recommended for grades four and up, this book employs the pedagogy and structure of our popular Latin for Children series.

A special note from the Spanish for Children author, Julia Kraut:

''Our goal with the SFC series is to teach students ''why.'' We focus on the rules that govern the language and spend a large amount of time comparing Spanish and English grammar. In many ways the series doesn't teach just Spanish, it teaches how to go about learning a language in general. This is different from the ''scenario-focused'' approach of many other textbooks, where students learn vocabulary that relates to specific subjects, and then learn to discuss those subjects. While students using SFC do memorize vocabulary each week, using groups of related words to talk about various subjects and scenarios is ''the icing on the cake''--the ''cake'' being an understanding of the patterns of the Spanish language, knowing which word belongs where and why.''
