Book Details

Say & Learn

EspañolFrançaisDeutsch日本語 ελληνικα
(By Google)

Say & Learn ® is a flip book that uses a unique learning method which involves practicing the pronunciation of words in Spanish and English (with the help of phonetic transcriptions) and finding words in word search puzzles.

After you pronounce and find all the words in the puzzle, you must then correctly identify the pictures at the bottom of the page using the new vocabulary.

While you play with Say & Learn ® , you are making cognitive associations by using a variety of skills at the same time. While searching for words and learning proper spelling, you are also learning accurate pronunciation and matching pictures with the word that describes them. Several studies about communications and psychology have demonstrated these combined actions are helpful for language learning.

This book offers an enjoyable way to learn and practice Spanish and English. The words used for the puzzles are strategically grouped into useful topics and life skills. You can choose from titles such as the family, the school, the library, the bank, the mall, the job safety, the symptoms, the body, etc. The wide variety of topics makes Say & Learn ® a helpful educational tool for students of all ages.

Two books in one
The first half of this flip book is in English, for Spanish learning. The second part is in Spanish, for English learning. Therefore, Say & Learn ® can be considered a dual resource for students and teachers of Spanish and/or English.
