Resources for the independent Spanish learner

I found this fab quote today:

"A few of my keener students have asked me to give them with advice and hints to help them keep their Spanish going over the summer, in anticipation of next academic year. Earlier today, over at http://www.asisehace.net/blog, I provided them with a list of websites containing audio and video resources that will help them keep their Spanish ticking over and, who knows? They might even learn one or two new things. The list is copied below:..."

You should read the whole article.

What about you? Do you have a list of fun and engaging resources to learn a language?

Telling simple stories to learn French.

Why not tell a simple stories with key words and expressions students have learnt, It is a nice way to reinforce the vocabulary, to introduce new words (that surely students will remember better because they are told in a story) and also for students to see the  point of learning a new language - Now you can understand a story!

Basically, this is how toddlers learn how to speak and this is the best way to learn another language.

I have found a great website with PowerPoints free to download telling simple stories or songs in French using pictures to explain key words. http://toolsforlanguage.com/french-language-powerpoint-exercises.html#comment

I really like "La Chenille qui a tres faim". What a great way to reinforce the food topic.
