Enjoyable to Use

I have a few typical "teach yourself Portuguese" books. They all seem to be geared towards memorizing helpful phrases. I was looking for something a little less dry than standard college text books, but more structured and formalized than other tourist centered books. This book is definitely geared toward a young audience but, because I am learning by myself, I appreciate the repetition. The grammar and thoroughness is definitely what I was looking for. The beautiful pictures can't hurt either. Although, I do really wish that it was longer. (I think that a Bom Dia! 2 is in the works though.)

Hurray for Bom Dia Level 1!!!!!

Bom Dia Level 1 is a fantastic Portuguese textbook.The photographs are outstanding- you can almost picture yourself in Portugal! The workbook and listening comprehension activities are varied and provide several different ways of teaching each concept. Although the book is aimed at students in grades 7-12 in the classroom setting, I have found no problem teaching my 3rd grade child at home, using all the products from the publisher, and some supplemental items too. The lessons are not too difficult and she is able to complete them in a timely manner. We especially enjoy the listening activities, where she can hear other Portuguese speakers. The cultural activities in each chapter are wonderful as well because they provide the student with more than just learning another language- it introduces them to how the people live, what foods they eat, etc... I highly recommend Bom Dia Level 1 Textbook for anyone homeschooling their children.
