Product Description
The Charlotte Mason way to learn conversational Spanish
Speaking Spanish with Miss Mason and François, Volume 1 guides you and your homeschool students through the Gouin Series approach to foreign language. This natural and effective method has you speaking the new language from the very first lesson, giving you immediate success. In Volume 1, students will learn more than 145 verbs, primarily in the first person indicative, providing the vocabulary needed to describe actions from their own daily lives. Volume 1 provides 2–3 years of lessons, depending on your pace.
Audio recordings of each series by a native speaker are included with the book as a digital download, so you can hear the correct pronunciations from the beginning.
The Approach
A Gouin Series is a set of phrases emphasizing verbs, which allows students to engage their whole bodies in the language lesson. A simple series is I take the book. I open the book. I close the book. Students first practice the series in English, then learn the key verbs in Spanish. This unlocks the ability for the student to create his own sentences with other nouns. For example, what else can be opened and closed?
Make learning a foreign language simple and engaging with Cherrydale Press foreign language courses!

Kathleen –
I wish I could give ten stars!! As a former Spanish teacher and a lover of this beautiful language, I am THRILLED to have found this CM method of language learning. Allyson Adrian is a genius to have compiled these series in a done-for-you format that is a joy to use. Our Spanish learning method includes these fantastic series, vocabulary practice (that I designed myself), and Spanish folksongs (Jose Luis Orozco). My 3 boys are currently in grades 12, 9, and 5 and I teach them all together. We’ve always done it this way and it’s worked wonderfully. They love it and so do I. The best part is to see them using and applying their Spanish skills, however haltingly, in our daily lives and in conversation with native Spanish speakers. Which, according to CM, is the whole point! Thank you!!
