EP183: How can we help our children learn a foreign language at home? Try using stories! Listen in as Jean talks with Jennifer Moscato of One Third Stories all about how stories and hands-on activities can help parents teach a foriegn language at home even when they haven't learned the language themselves. As a stay-at-home mom turned educator and entrepreneur, Jennifer brings a relatable warmth to our conversation, blending her rich experiences with the innovative principles of Waldorf education.
This episode dives into the practicalities of One Third Stories' unique method, showcasing how curated story boxes become a treasure trove of learning. With original children's tales, accompanied by activities and flashcards, and narrated by native speakers, these resources can enrich your summer learning plans or fit snugly into a broader homeschooling curriculum, fostering a global perspective and cultural appreciation along the way.
