Oscar el pingüino hides with vividly photographed common objects in every card of this three-deck bilingual flashcard set.

Building on the popularity of the ¡Oscar! Spanish Flashcard Set, Oscar Se Esconde was created with the youngest students in mind. The objects are the dominant feature amidst a stark white background, and a miniature Oscar adds interest for young students who enjoy "seeking out" hidden objects in the cards.

The three decks are color-coded according to Spanish bilabial phonemes (/p/, /b/, /m/) in word-initial position, allowing ample opportunity for students to practice early-developing sounds. In addition to articulation, the cards allow you to address vocabulary, spatial relations, and basic concepts (e.g., shapes and primary colors).

Each deck contains 20 pairs of flashcards with Spanish and English single-word labels printed on the front of each card (including masculine/feminine definite articles). An index card completes each deck for a total of 41 cards per deck. The set also includes two Oscar "wild cards" and several cards with suggestions for activities. Each complete Oscar Se Esconde set contains 130 cards, contained compactly in a sturdy 3.5" x 2.5" x 4.75" box with tabbed dividers.

Field-tested with bilingual speech-language pathologists across the country, Oscar Se Esconde reflects a vocabulary as dialectically-sensitive as possible to Spanish-speakers with Mexican, Puerto Rican, and other Latin American influences.

Giggles are contagious when your students find Oscar with something new in every colorful photo flashcard of this 8 deck set. Created by a licensed SLP, this one set adapts to a variety of communication goals.

Decks are color-coded by Spanish speech sounds: “r, s, l, ch, k, g, f, and x,” and include a balanced number of words containing the target sound in all word positions (initial, medial, final) in which they naturally occur in Spanish. Each deck contains 20 pairs of flashcards with Spanish single-word labels printed on the front of each card (including masculine and feminine articles). Additionally, all cards have the same back side, allowing cards from various decks to be mixed together for use in games. Stickers with English word labels are included for you to adhere to the front or back of cards if desired. An index card (with English translations) completes each deck, for a total of 41 cards per deck. That’s 328 total cards encased in eight hinged plastic boxes that store compactly in one game box.

Field tested with a variety of native Spanish speakers from across the country, these cards capture a dialectically-sensitive vocabulary of real-world Spanish that students use everyday with their family and friends.
