    Do not use Google Translate. 

    Instead, try Wordreference if your child needs to look up words. Google Translate is machine-generated and often inaccurate. Wordreference provides definitions and example sentences for context with each word, including parts of speech. It also has a verb conjugator and grammar section.

     

    How to use these suggested language resources: 

    Choose ONE app, ONE podcast, and ONE TV show your child likes. 

    Use each source once per week. This is a great habit to establish for summer break as well.
