In this first full-length episode, let's talk about language development, vocabulary, and everyday opportunities to promote learning.
I could have called this episode 'how GarageBand ruined my week'...after days of struggling to figure out why dragging edited segments within a track was causing prior segments to change, and battling to deal with variations in recording quality, I concede defeat...but vow to improve the quality for the next episode- actually already figured out a big part of the problem! Maybe don't use your best headphones to listen to this one. Just sayin.
