Quizlet

Quizlet is another vocabulary site. And it's one worth mentioning in my opinion. 

When I signed up I noticed that Quizlet has a premium option. I almost never bother with premium options (how is an eight-year-old supposed to pay a hundred or more dollars a year?) but I do check to see how much they cost.

I was shocked because Quizlet only charges $15 for a year of premium service. I could pay for that with my allowance! Keep in mind, though, this review is for the FREE version of Quizlet because right now that's what I am trying.

On Quizlet you can create sets of flashcards or browse sets made by others in the languages mentioned below or for other things such as State Flags, Body Parts, and oddly enough Thanksgiving Dinner?

You can browse by category. 

I chose Languages And Vocabulary, of course.

Then I selected Spanish so I could check this place out.

I browsed through the pre-made sets of Spanish flashcards and settled on Spanish 2.

Each of the words is shown to you as a flashcard. Then you can practice, play a game, or take a test.

I decided to try out their games.

Scatter

In this game they throw all the words on the floor, in Spanish and English, and you have to pick up the Spanish word and put it on top of the English word or vice versa. This game was actually fun while it made me pay attention to the vocabulary.

Space Race

This is a game that requires some typing skill. The words fly by on the screen and you have to type them in as they are flying. I really like this game even though I can't seem to win it!

123 Teach Me

123 Teach Me is a site with resources, games, and a kid's section for learning Spanish for free online. This site has A LOT of stuff.

MUSIC

Los Elefantes - A Spanish Song For Children

The site has some popular children's songs and nursery rhymes. My favourite is Arroz Con Leche but Olive (one of my little sisters) loves Los Elefantes. We listen to all the songs.

GAMES

Destination Death: Find Your Missing Sister (Spanish, German, French)

One of my favourite games on the site is Destination Death even though it's not for kids. (So don't tell Faith because she'll tell on me, shhh!) The game is not as scary as they make you think (by saying it isn't for kids). Although, it is a little dark and you are looking for a missing person. So, if those kind of things give you the heebie jeebies you might want to pass.

You just have to be able to read some Spanish (or German or French since the game has those options.) and you'll be able to solve the mystery and find your missing sister in the airport. They give you a multiple choice list of responses which makes the game easier.

PLACEMENT TEST!

A Placement Test Question

 This one is important because you can see how much Spanish you know. I like to take them once a month to see how far I have progressed in my Spanish learning. This is one of my favourite features on 123 Teach Me.

One of my own scores from a placement test. My Spanish isn't perfect!?

There are a lot of other features on the site. You can sort sentences, listen to dialogues, take quizzes. You might want to make sure you have enough spare time when you check it out because you are going to want to spend a while on this one!
