Description
For students who already speak Spanish (dual-language, heritage speakers, Gr 3-5): syllables, the strong syllable (sílaba tónica), última / penúltima / antepenúltima, and how the tilde marks it. En español: separa palabras en sílabas, encuentra la sílaba tónica y descubre qué hace la tilde. STEP 1 of Spanish Spelling and Accent Marks (6 escape rooms, bundle 20% off). All card text in simple Spanish; Latin American audio, normal and slow. Story: a friendly crystal mine's signs lost their tildes. 4 rooms, 30 cards. HOW IT WORKS - Room 1: syllables (pr, bl, tr, ch, ll, rr stay together); count them. - Room 2: the strong syllable by ear: clap it. - Room 3: última, penúltima, antepenúltima. - Room 4: acento vs tilde: the tilde sits on the strong vowel. SELF-CHECKING WITH HINTS 20 scored cards; accents are tapped. Audio learn cards, 2 hints per puzzle, answer cards that name the rule. ACCURACY Rules follow the RAE/ASALE Ortografía de la lengua española (2010) and the RAE Diccionario panhispánico de dudas. Software re-checks every answer and each stress word 3 ways. Spanish checked by 3 AI reviews and a speech-recognition round trip; not checked by a native speaker or class-tested. HOW IT WAS MADE Text written with AI help and checked. Pictures drawn in code. Narration: AI voices generated with Kokoro-82M (open-source text-to-speech), preset voices; no real person's voice. Needs sound. Characters and places are made up.
