Bienvenidos!

 

Here we are where Spanish will be the other language our students will continue to learn. Throughout the month of OCTOBER students will learn how to build upon what they already know and become aware of what life is like in Spanish speaking countries

Their spanish vocabulary will grow, and they will  enjoy the culture through dance, song, poetry, dichos, (wise sayings) and art.

Students will appreciate the beauty of the different countries with their cascades, montainous regions and enjoyable climates. Finally, they will continue to learn about letters, colors, numbers, clothing, verbs, food, feelings, and use of sentences.  We are speaking the language as they learn and it becomes exciting for them.

Now as you partake in your child's education and are learning alongside them, you too will enjoy the different concepts as they are presented.
