Symtalk

Fun, simple language learning for K-5 students.

World Languages Elementary School (K-5) Supplemental Learning Blended Solution

Symtalk—available for Spanish and French—is all about visual language learning. Symtalk uses a symbol method, with each image representing a word. What makes Symtalk unique is that the symbols represent all parts of speech, and are introduced and practiced in the context of a complete sentence. Your students will learn vocabulary and grammar in a natural way while having fun interpreting each picture!
