This high-school level class will develop reading, writing, listening, / /and speaking abilities through a variety of different activities. The / /students learn about Hispanic culture, they answer comprehension / /questions, all while learning the relevant vocabulary and structures. / /They apply and retain what they learn in a variety of formats. My goal / /is for the students to acquire a basic foundation for communicating in / /Spanish. Although this may be just a first year class, when I work with / /the students my goals are always long-term: To help them become fluent.
/ /
/ / Students journal about their day-to-day life, in Spanish, to practice / /what they are learning. We play games in class, eat Hispanic foods, and / /even sing songs ? all as a way to reinforce and enjoy learning together. / / Because I grew up in a Mexican home and am a fluent speaker, I desire / /to communicate not just the nuts and bolts of the language, but its / /practical use in everyday life.
/ /
/ / Online component! In order to provide additional ways to interact with / /and take advantage of the material, we will be using both online and / /in-class instruction. Students will meet with me once a week in class / /where new grammar and vocabulary will be introduced. Their homework will / / be a combination of traditional and online assignments. I will use the / /internet for: quizzes, some workbook exercises, listening activities, / /flash cards, and games. With such a variety of activities, students will / / listen to the language and write it on a daily basis. Students will / /still take some tests and quizzes- the paper and pencil kind - / /administered in class. I?m excited about the opportunity to provide / /even more ways for your child to review and practice.
/ /
/ / Book and Workbook: You order the textbook on line from a bookseller of / /your choice. As soon as you register for this class, I will send you the / / ISBN. I will order the workbook for you directly from the / /publisher ($17).
