Repertorio, Cuna - teacher guide + student songbook (PRINT)

Repertorios provide an opportunity for your family to encounter truth, beauty, and goodness in a second language.

Language study can be a means through which our children encounter living ideas, “giving them hundreds of pleasant places for their minds to roam in.” (Charlotte Mason, Philosophy of Education, p.45)

—————

Repertorios are for families looking for….

…fun, interactive and meaningful ways to use and learn Spanish.

…simple to use language-learning materials that can be enjoyed during a Spanish-language morning/circle time or teatime.

…ways to reinforce language-learning other than/outside of formal lessons.

…tools to create a home atmosphere that nurtures language learning.

—————

Each 12-week guide offers a repertoire of culturally authentic content that has been carefully curated and researched:

• El Padre Nuestro , The Lord’s Prayer (included at the beginning of all Repertorio guides)

• El himno, Hymn

• La canción folclórica, Folksong

• El verso de escritura, Scripture verse

• El poema, Poem

• La rima de mano, Hand Rhyme

While all components are intended for use by the entire family and language learners of all ages, the finger rhyme creates a special moment to interact in Spanish with infants, toddlers or young children.

As your family prays, sings, and recites in Spanish, you will:

• practice pronunciation

• acquire new vocabulary

• learn about Spanish-speaking countries and cultures

• develop listening, reading, and comprehension skills

• enjoy using Spanish in meaningful ways

All guides offer HELPFUL TOOLS to help teachers and language-learners understand and interact with the material:

• style-coded Spanish-English translations

• gestures that accompany text to aid in comprehension

• custom-made videos with helpful visuals or hand motions

• custom-made (or carefully chosen) voice recordings with QR codes and links to help with pronunciation

• open-and-go, easy to implement style

• simple instructions for weeks 1-12

• student song book with lyrics and visuals

Each Repertorio is named after an element that appears in the guide. The name of this Repertorio is Cuna, or ‘cradle’, found in the folksong, a traditional lullaby in Spanish-speaking cultures.
