My Take
If students are driven, they may continue to do the program outside of school. Considering I am not a foreign language teacher, I can't vouch for the validity of the content, but I believe it works well for at least establishing a basis of knowledge and vocabulary. This is most certainly a supplemental activity.
How I Use It
I use this program as a reward for students who have finished their work. It really relies on students having a desire to learn another language, given that they are not currently taking a language class at the elementary level. If students are not driven to learn, they will quickly abandon the program.
