With Blossom, you can read to your child in a foreign language—even if you aren’t fluent in it. Simply select from a list of blend ratios between your native and target languages (for example, 75% English and 25% Spanish) to see the multilingual text come to life. You can even use the playback function to help with pronunciation so you can practice speaking alongside your little one.
Kids love to read their favorite books over and over again—and Blossom offers a fun way to spice things up and keeps the story fresh each time. The same story with a different language blend creates an exciting new reading experience. What better way for young children to be immersed in a new language than being absorbed in a beloved storybook?
Through their linked Blossom accounts at school and at home, children and their parents can access the same ebooks and activities used in the classroom. This allows for students to continue their learning any time, any place. Teachers can also request or design their own custom content through the Creator’s Studio, adding flexibility as they build up a dedicated library of multilingual materials to meet their student’s diverse spectrum of needs.
Blossom empowers schools to engage all students and their families, including those who speak a language other than English. Administrators can view engagement reports to track how students are learning and growing. And since Blossom’s materials are developed in accordance with national and state content standards, they have confidence that the concepts covered are aligned with classroom curriculum.
