How to use the Course Components

I purchased Rocket Spanish I and II about 2 weeks ago. I printed out all the materials and am getting ready to "dive in" next week But, I'm not sure how/what sequence to use all the course components. Do I start by listening to the Beginner Audio Files ? When do I listen to the conversation audios? When when is the best time to start playing the Megavocab etc games and playing with the flash cards?? This course looks great but there are so many different parts to it, I'm not sure what is the best way to proceed. Thank you for this basic guidance. JoAnne

JoAnne, I would advice as follows --put your audio on a little stick, mp3 player...or whatever, and listen every day, as much as you can. It does not matter which lesson number you have. You will need X amount of time to get used to the particular sound of a language. Think of it as a baby who is learning. How does it learnh ? Well, as for the Spanish language, you are a baby...who wants to learn. --as for reading follow the sequence given to you as the lessons are numbered and each lesson is build on the previous one. All number 1's are together, all number 2's are together ... mostly :) etc. Try this for a month. If you are not comfortable with this in a month, you will have to figure out your own way of learning. There is no "" One suit fits all "" thing. Start with listening the whole day. When you are driving the car, when you are doing shopping, when you are washing the clothes etc etc. If you have a particular question, please post on this forum. Best of luck Antonio
