Leo Crosswords has been carefully designed around the best way to help young learners study Spanish, with a focus on vocabulary and pronunciation through fun game play. The program enables students to quickly learn new words that contain Open Syllables (ends in a vowel) or Mixed Syllables (ends in a vowel or a consonant). In addition, students will improve Spanish knowledge by focusing on more challenging words that are Blends (combinations of 2 or 3 consonants such as "bl" or "ch") and Digraphs (vowel combinations that have distinct sounds like "au" and "eu"). By breaking words down into syllables, students begin to discover patterns which makes learning new words easier. After each crossword puzzle, the ispy game is a fun way for kids to review and memorize the meanings of the words they spell in the crossword section.
