Frog's world language and geography web site
features 5 world languages (Spanish, German,
French, Italian and English as a Second Language)
on one complete site, offering realistic and
practical language for children of all ages
to use in the U.S. and abroad. Children have
easy access to materials for all languages,
as they please - in depth or at a glance,
with connecting geography and culture modules,
along with both geography and comparative
cultural activities. An onscreen window with
video showing real native speaker children
practices listening comprehension as well
as modeling for pronunciation. There are no
cartoons. Each video is unique to the language
and was shot on location in corresponding
countries. The video interviews with children
are a "child-to-child" language
learning tool. Your children or students will
enjoy using the program for one language or
all five if they wish.
