Spanish Reading & Coloring – Poesía Infantil del poeta bilingüe Profe Steve y páginas para colorear

Coloring page used for the poem – página para colorear del poema

Dear reader, I use coloring pages to trick my kids into reading poetry, and it works. I have been doing this for a few months, and now I have inspired a bilingual poet to do the same. In this post, I share 2 of his Spanish poems.

Queridos lectores, uso las páginas para colorear para conseguir que mis niños lean poesía. A ellos les gusta y siempre leen el poema al menos dos veces. Agora he inspirado a un poeta bilingüe a hacer lo mismo y aquí conparto dos de sus poemas infantiles.

Learning Italian with Music: Phrases I understood

Dear reader,

(If you are learning/ teaching Spanish, scroll all the way to the end of this post for my Spanish lesson)

Learning a foreign language by listening to music is both enjoyable and effective. By regularly exposing your ears to the sounds and rhythms of the language, you train yourself to recognize its unique patterns. Start by focusing on familiar words and phrases—this helps you connect the lyrics to meanings you already know. As you listen, you’ll naturally pick up new vocabulary, and recognizing recurring phrases can build your fluency. Music also helps with pronunciation and intonation, as you hear native speakers or singers using the language in a fluid, natural way. Repeating this process deepens your understanding and brings the language to life in a fun and engaging way.

Note: I already knew a little, tiny bit of Italian when I started this, also Spanish is my first language:

Duolingo Language Learning: I use it for easy home education

Dear reader,

(Spanish learning/ teaching? Scrool to the end for my fun lesson)

It is true that I love language study and learning and I love Duolingo, even though I am not happy they do not have a level two once you finish you language course. I finished my Latin course and got bored, picked up 2 more languages…

This is my Duolingo report this week:

I guess I have a need to prove I am a real person. Why?

With the modern trend of everything we find being AI, I do have a need to prove that I am a real person who really studies language and teaches her children.

Just today we did Halloween arts and crafts…

Anyway, let us connect on Duolingo if you use it, find me as Eve Sanchez.

Why Duolingo

screenshot_20240920_193751_duolingo1642364965774451837
I am currently trying to have more XP on Greek, also struggling with my Greek.

I do not need to learn a language, but I attempted to get my kids interested in Spanish, my first language, and they do not want to be told what to learn, they have their own opinions and ideas, which is really cute…

I joined Duolingo to inspire my kids to learn languages because they imitate anything I do: no pressure.

It worked because they started learning languages too. They are not organized and quit their own Duolingo, yet, Lilli does my Latin lessons at times, Vivi is learning the Greek alphabet with me, they have a Dinolingo Spanish course, Lilli took a Latin class, Lilli and I have Latin jokes, Alex does the Greek lessons with me and repeats the Greek words, Lilli and Vivi took Spanish classes: it worked, but my inspiration effort is ongoing.

Part of my effort is to have them observe my own learning, as well as to experience my learning methods which are varied and colorful, on top of that to expose them to different languages: music in Spanish and Italian; Italian, Latin, Greek words, phrases, and entire videos or podcasts being broadcasted in our house; and more.

And you,

Are you learning or teaching a language? Which? Do you have tips?

Do you listen to music in your target language?

Learning Spanish?
