| |  For sale in U.S. and Canada only-- Sesame Workshop has created Sesame English, a new series designed to help teach English as a Second Language. This series features Tingo, an energetic, newly created Muppet. Tingo, who recently arrived in this country, introduces conversational English through adventures with his friend, Niki, a typical teenage girl. Each program follows a simple storyline that uses humor, physical action and music to appeal to children while introducing basic English expressions, vocabulary and sentence structures. The series also includes classic Sesame Street Muppets, animation and live-action segments. Tingo speaks in English as well as Spanish to clarify and reinforce storylines and language concepts.
The VHS version offers true bilingual instruction for Spanish-speaking students. Teacher's Guides are included and available online. | | "Schools and libraries that serve a large Spanish-speaking population will find these videos popular as well as educational."- School Library Journal (Oct 2003) "All titles feature an appealing combination of "Sesame Street Muppets, animation and live-action segments.""- Booklist (Oct 1, 2003)
