Students are automatically led from one activity to the next, and the Adaptive RecallTM  feature provides built-in review of previously learned concepts. Student records, course scope and sequence, and scheduled activities can all be viewed at a glance.       Rosetta Stone's Scope:   Rosetta Stone Level 1 Homeschool Edition builds a foundation of fundamental vocabulary and essential language structure.   Level 1 provides instruction in such categories as: Basic conversational skills Greetings and introductions Colors, adjectives, and numbers Prepositions, definite and indefinite articles,  singular and plural nouns Family relations, the 5 senses, time of day These are just examples of the topics covered.  Please e-mail us if you need more exhaustive information on course content.     Rosetta Stone Level 2 Homeschool Edition helps you to navigate your surroundings as you build on the vocabulary and essential language structure of Level 1.   Level 2 provides instruction in such categories as: Directions, transportation, and telling time Past and future tenses, adverbs, and formal imperatives, School subjects, months of the year, and social dialogues Emotions Sequencing with First/Then/Finally These are just examples of the topics covered.  Please e-mail us if you need more exhaustive information on course content.   Rosetta Stone's System Requirements:   Windows (32-bit editions only) 2000, XP or Vista, Mac OS X 10.4 or 10.5 512 MB RAM 1 GHz or faster processor speed 600 MB free hard-drive space (per level) 16-bit sound card 800 x 600 display resolution (1024 x 768 recommended) Internet or phone connection required for product activation Speech recognition feature requires a headset microphone (included in set--USB recommended) 16X CD-ROM Drive (for installation)     Need more stuff?
