Step-by-step structure provides easy continuation of language learning
The Calico Spanish curriculum is divided into four levels, beginning with Level A and continuing through Level D. Each level is appropriate for use with children ages 4+, so you can begin your homeschool language learning journey to speak Spanish at any time.
Level A: I am special
Children begin their journey by learning the basics of self-introduction. They learn to ask and answer basic questions about name and age and say something about themselves, including what they are like and what they like to do. They learn to talk about the days of the week, identify things that are blue or yellow, and count items up to three.
Level B: I love my family
Children continue adding building blocks of language as they learn to describe themselves and their family and pets. They begin to talk about other people, including what they are like and what they like to do. They count items up to six; describe things as brown, black, or white; and learn to tell the date.
Level C: I live here
Children develop more language skills focused on activities around their home. They begin to talk about food, games, routines, and describing where something is. They learn to tell time, describe things as red or green, and count items up to twelve.
Level D: Welcome to the farm
Children develop further conversational skills to talk about weather, seasons, and clothing in the context of activities on a farm in Mexico. They can describe things that are orange or pink, identify the number of items up to one hundred, sequence events in a story, and more.
