Language Learning Libelle

I am working with Boshra to build up our Dutch vocabulary and of course she is building up on her English on the way too... I am building on my Arabic too.  I personally am so fascinated with the Belgium magazine Libelle there are some very interesting and well written articles. Articles, that I enjoy cracking open the language to reveal the stories and information therein.  I am building up some powerpoint slides to jpeg to send to Boshra in messenger while we are apart me in London and she in Belgium... But when we are together we enjoy sitting with my tablet and google translating together to get into the know.  

Here are some slides on indoor plants as we both love flowers and gardening so this is good for us to learn from. Not only learn the language but the information in the article. 



I have some more slides below from an hard copy of the magazine. There was a very good array of life stories for me to translate and whilst I have picked on a sad story I felt it important for some vocabulary on feelings around sadness and life tragedies to help Boshra be able to communicate her story too.  In this copy of the magazine I found an amazing story about a very dedicated midwife her life an inspiration so much so I felt that to highlight her to the Royal College of Midwives in the hope she will be invited to speak at one of the conferences.
