Dear family,
I hope everyone is well. Spanish class has been a terrific experience and the children seem to enjoy the videos, music with Spanish vocabulary, activity sheets and movement we do with some videos. We started Christmas music in Spanish ( El Jibarito Sabanero) and other songs.
Grades three to six are working with Exploring Spanish and will continue with twenty chapters. This book is for three years and they will do projects in each chapter. They will learn greetings, numbers, geography of Spain and Mexico, map skills, music, shopping and other information. They will also use digital programs in Spanish such as Basho and Friends, quia.com, duolingo for the older kids, quizlet.com and other videos on line. They will use Rosetta Stone starting from the fifth grade to eighth grade.
When the sixth grade students complete Exploring Spanish they will begin Avancemos Textbook and workbook sheets.  They will work on duolingo and Rosetta Stone on Fridays.
Grades three through eight will have projects or homework activities depending on the chapter they are working on.  Lets make this year memorable.
