***This class might be right for your learner if: -they know little to no Spanish vocabulary -they are willing to repeat Spanish words and phrases -they are able to sit and listen to a short story ***taking turns will be very important in this class so that everyone gets to participate and practice their Spanish. In this ongoing class we will increase our Spanish vocabulary by seeing key words come to life within bilingual stories. The stories are written, illustrated and narrated by Maestra Zia. Short hands on activities related to the stories will also be included. Each week we will focus on a set of new vocabulary words which we will see in action within our story and get to practice in class. Class time will consist of vocabulary review (spelling, pronunciation and examples) and a visual story time along with some time for discussion and space for the children to interact with one another. Maestra Zia is a happy teacher who loves to provide positive reinforcement and encourage student participation while instructing and modeling materials in a clear and fun way. Students will be encouraged to interact in Spanish and because this is an ongoing class, they will have the opportunity to form friendships and grow together as we see each other on a consistent basis. No required experience. This is a basic/beginners class that introduces new Spanish language learners to key words in a fun way but also provides other extra language acquisition for them. This class can also provide valuable practice and maintenance for Spanish speakers with a bit more experience. "Let's enrich each other's lives!" ~Zia
