Beginner Level

🏗️ This course helps students learn helpful beginning commands in Spanish that they can use right way and engage their bodies in the process!

🗣️ This is not a lecture-based class. Students listen, watch, repeat, play, and are invited to perform with their puppets! 

📖 Students enjoy a simple book that reinforces the words we are learning and provides a meaningful, fun connection to use in real life.

🧑🏻‍🏫In this course, students receive support from an attentive, encouraging, experienced teacher as they practice their language skills. The teacher provides individual feedback on students' submitted videos and worksheets.

Commands included this course are: sit, stand, walk, run, open the door, close the door, open the window, close the window, open the book, and close the book.

Learning Goals
