How many times have you heard the saying learning Croatian is a real hassle. How many hours have you spent searching for the right book, interesting book, useful workbook, simple YouTube videos, practical memos?
Krečionica –The Creative Classroom felt the need to create simple, interactive, effective material for initial learning of Croatian language i.e. vocabulary called CROCARDS.
CROCARDS make a box of 100 illustrated cards. Each card has its own term illustrated and put in a sentence for better understanding. Illustrations are very simple and colorful with a clear idea what they represent. You may have heard about “flashcards“ and this is exactly that in its Croatian version.
Two additional things are also done to make the learning easier: a booklet in which the whole content has been translated into English, and a video in which all terms have been pronounced so you get to practice without doubting the pronunciation.
This material for learning Croatian language is made for everyone who was introduced to Croatian for the first time. So there is no difference whether you are starting to learn Croatian as an adult or a child.
The best thing about it is that it is interactive and you can use it as a game among your family and friends. In the box you can find 100 cards divided into 6 topics: Animals, Furniture, Body, Adjectives, Verbs, Everyday Phrases.
The school has published a high end promo video to represent its product. They hope to reach an audience that hasn’t been introduced to the product so far. (See video below)
Professor Kristina uses the cards in her lessons even in intermediate level, motivating her students to create stories by picking a random card, creates fun activities like Pictionary, challenges her students to practice tenses using the Verbs section. Professor highlights the fun usage that comes from the product which, in the end, is the best way to learn anything so why not apply it to learning Croatian.
You can order CROCARDS on their website (you have to write your address for calculating shipping cost.)
The price for the box is 33 Euros + the shipping cost (Croatia: 4 Euros, SAD + Canada: 31 Euro, Australia: 43 Euros, European Union: 15 Euros). Shipping cost stays the same up to three boxes.
