Students will practice the basics of programming, problem solving and critical thinking skills with Scratch Jr. while learning Spanish weekly. Students will listen to a Spanish Read Aloud first and then code a short program using Scratch Jr. Students will have the opportunity to use academic and conversational Spanish in class. Please download the app: Scratch Jr. before class. I strongly recommend you join class using a different device in order to see teacher's screen and follow along.

Hello! My name is Cynthia Burleigh. I live in Texas. I graduated from the University of Texas at Arlington with a Bachelor in Science in Information Systems. I started my career in a banking institute, but quickly realized I wanted to become a teacher. I have been working in education for 15 years, 3 years teaching with Outschool. I am Bilingual Certified - speak English and Spanish and teach Bilingual and ESL students. My teaching experience includes: Robotics, Codings, Spanish, Pre K - 3rd grade Bilingual instruction, Bilingual Reading Specialist, and STEM teacher.
I love to teach Reading, Math, Spanish, Technology and STEM (including robotics). I love spending time with family, teaching, and running. A little fun fact about me...I run marathons for fun! I can't wait to see you in class.Reviews
