About this product

Details. Condition: BRAND NEW. Format: Flexibound. ISBN: 9780241491409. Publisher: DK. Age Range: 6-9 years. Overview. Italian for Everyone Junior: 5 Words a Day is a bright, engaging workbook that helps children aged 6-9 build a 1,000-word Italian vocabulary over the course of a year. Designed for young beginners, it teaches five new words each day through colourful illustrated scenes, reinforcing learning with weekly practice pages. With handy jacket flaps for self-testing and free online audio for pronunciation, it's an ideal first step into a new language for curious young learners, whether at home or alongside school lessons.. About the Book. This Flexibound workbook from DK takes a simple, structured approach to teaching Italian vocabulary to young children. Each week introduces 20 new words across four days of learning, with the fifth day dedicated to practice and revision, helping words stick through repetition and gentle testing. The illustrated scenes place vocabulary in context - covering everyday topics like family, food, animals, colours and school - so children learn words alongside pictures that bring their meaning to life. A clever flap on the book's jacket can be folded over each scene, letting children cover up the labelled words and quiz themselves on what they remember, building confidence step by step. The mix of nouns and verbs taught throughout means children pick up practical, useful language rather than just isolated words, giving them a genuine foundation for real conversations. Free companion audio, available online and via app, lets children hear each word spoken aloud by a native speaker, supporting correct pronunciation from the very beginning - something a printed book alone cannot teach. By working through the book's structured weekly plan across a year, children steadily build up to 1,000 Italian words, a genuinely impressive vocabulary for a young learner and an excellent springboard for school Italian lessons or family holidays abroad. The rote-learning method used throughout is proven and age-appropriate, avoiding overwhelming grammar in favour of steady, memorable vocabulary building that suits the attention span and learning style of primary-age children.. Key Benefits. Teaches 1,000 Italian words gradually over a year, five words a day. Colourful illustrated scenes make new vocabulary memorable and fun. Interactive jacket flaps let children self-test what they've learned. Free online and app audio supports accurate pronunciation practice.
