Int. Spanish 2

We have been reading Cinderella (Cenicienta) in order for Emma and Robbie to get used to hearing themselves in Spanish and to start getting used to grammar in Spanish. There are many words they don't know, but they are pushed to "guess" at some words that are very similar to a word in English. Then they realize it is not a coincidence but that they sound similar because they mean the same thing. I translate the words they do not recognize at all.

Once we've finished the story, I will post a set of misc. words they have learned and will have a quiz on them.
