Thing #6
I chose Mango. It is great! The website is a great way for total immersion students to learn english from their own language. There is a sentance that can be read and then the sentance is read in the language that the student is trying to learn. This would also be an excellent way for students who know English to learn another language such as Japanese or Spanish. I would love to use this tool in my classroom. There timed questions to which the person says the answers and then is shown the answer. I did not really like that the lessons are so long, the first one that I tried was 62 slides long. However, you can skip or review certain slides by simply dragging the arrow. The website also offers several reviews of just vocab or phrases. I thought it would be wonderful for all kinds of students, "normal" or disabled even. Mango is great!
