In a Spanish immersion environment for young kids who already speak it, we will practice recognizing the five vowel sounds, pair them with the consonant M, and read a simple book together, with a loving theme perfect for Valentine's day.

Class Experience

Is your young Spanish-speaker ready to explore how letter sounds work together in written text?  This class is designed for young children who are already advanced* in Spanish but not yet reading or just starting to learn. It will be helpful if they are familiar with the vowel sounds A, E, I, O, and U in Spanish, but they may or may not feel confident in these yet.

This class is taught in Spanish.

I received a minor in the Spanish language with my bachelor degree (2011). Later, I went on to complete the seven-week level 5 Spanish course at Roca Blanca Spanish School in Catalotepec, Mexico (2018). I have taught group Spanish classes to a variety of ages over a span of six years, five years of which have been online. In 2018-2019, I led a preschool co-op in Spanish, primarily to children who were already fluent. Additionally, I have been raising my children primarily in Spanish since 2016.

After class, the teacher will provide several optional follow-up materials, including a printable version of the reader from class for students to practice reading further, two worksheets, and a printable version of the memory game.

Learners need only bring their preferred writing materials (whiteboard and dry eraser marker or pencil and paper, etc). After class, I will provide a printable version of the reader from class, as well as worksheets and other materials for students to practice reading further.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

25 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
