spanish lessons face to face

February 2, 2015


our texas christmasour texas christmasour texas christmasour texas christmasour texas christmasI’ve shared a little about how we started Spanish lessons with Ben’s mom via FaceTime. Read more about it here. When we were in Texas over the holidays, they were able to do some face to face Spanish lessons. The girls love learning from their Grandmama so much!

It’s pretty cool to see Ben’s mom set up of the classroom. You could see a little when they are doing lessons online (mainly the whiteboard), but we got to see firsthand the love and care she takes in preparing lessons for her grandchildren. She has a whiteboard, an array of Spanish books (and Spanish to English ones too), and she even has a class pet for them! And even though the kids were technically on Christmas break from school, they were more than happy to get in Spanish lessons with their Grandmama.

Ben and I are so thankful that his mom is able to be part of their homeschooling. They are all creating special memories for sure, and I think that’s the most wonderful thing about it. They aren’t bilingual just yet, but we’re hoping they get there. You have to start somewhere, right?!

p.s. they lived in those polka-dotted pajamas all throughout the holidays (a gift from their grandma).

    i’m so glad! i was thinking that it would have been a ball to do them face to face. i thought about it when you wrote about your car adventure home… and back to grandma’s. 😉

  • How cool is this! What a sweet treat to have Grandma as their teacher! I bet it’ll make language learning so much richer and more fun. I’ve recently considered taking Spanish lessons face-to-face, too! Even though it might not be with my Grandma, learning a second language is an invaluable skill I’ve always wanted to acquire 🙂

    This is just too much for me.
    My girls are half latinas yet even though i have tried to continue Spanish learning with them, they just seem to prefer english starting around age 2 which frustrates me a lot.
    Are you using an specific curriculum for spanish?
    I travel to my home only every once in a while making it difficult for me to gear up with text books from Bolivia. I have tried to find something online with no sucess. Would you mind sharing what you are using i am a homeschooling mom of 4 girls, too. And my hubby name is Ben. Lol.
