Interested in learning Zulu? This is the perfect place to start! This book is intended to help your child learn:

 

Pronunciation of isiZulu sounds

Letters and blends found in this book create sounds that are the foundation of isiZulu vocabulary.

 

Familiarity with everyday isiZulu conversational vocabulary

The isiZulu flashcards will introduce weather, feelings, food, animal and other vocabulary, all of which are common to primary learning and basic conversation.

 

Common and necessary primary skills

Both the worksheets and the activity pages found in this book integrate writing, tracing, cutting, puzzles and creative play. All these are important skills for primary students regardless of their native language.

 

Common and celebratory scenes associated with Zulu culture

The culture coloring pages will show pictures that most Zulu people find familiar and meaningful. The coloring pages are accompanied by a very brief description that will expose children to unfamiliar parts of Zulu Culture or reinforce the importance of these scenes to those who are already familiar with them.
