Class Experience

This course is designed to build on the course, Middle School Introduction to Spanish. Along with new material, previous vocabulary and grammar concepts will be revisited as new material is introduced. Once new vocabulary is introduced via class lecture, google slides and at times, video clips, we will practice the content using fun, interactive games and conversation. We will participate in  interactive vocabulary games via Kahoot and Pear Deck Vocabulary builder. These varied activities will allow the learner both guided practice as well as independent thinking before the end of class. Students will be provided with independent learning activities at the end of each class.      I am an interactive teacher with the goal of making learning both fun and educational.  My classes include interactive discussion, games, songs and role play. Each class will begin with a warm up/greeting. We will then discuss the previous lesson/homework if applicable. New material will be shared via Google slides and each slides presentation will be shared with participants at the end of each class.
The following concepts will be presented:
*The verbs Ser and Estar 
*When to use Ser and Estar 
*Common present tense verbs ending in -ar and their meanings
*House vocabulary 
*seasons of the year 
*Places 
*Transportation 
*Activities and hobbies 
*Occupations 
*History and information about Christmas in Mexico 
*Interactive interview in Spanish with the instructor
