Beginner Level
What a wonderful time of the year to learn Spanish doing your favorite activities! In this course you will do seasonal crafts and experiments, and cook simple recipes in Spanish. Participate on small craft projects and experiments such as learning how to make a gummy bear grow and make a windsock. The structure of the class is as follows: 5 Minutes: Warm up 30 Minutes: Activity 5 Minutes: Wrap up Day 1: Steam Day 2: Craft Day 3: Steam Day 4: Craft Day 5: Steam Day 6: Craft Day 7: Steam Day 8: Craft Day 9: Steam Day 10: Craft Day 11: Steam Day 12: Craft Students don't require any previous experience on the subject to be able to participate or learn in this class. In general you learn a foreign language by being exposed to it. I can tell you that by personal experience. Like everything else, you need to practice to understand and finally learn.
Learning Goals
Students will be exposed to rich vocabulary in Spanish that will allow them to make connections that will last a lifetime. Students will learn the numbers 1-31, at least 5 colors, some school supplies and more. Participants will be engaged in activities with directions in Spanish. Students will be repeating words and sentences while doing things that they love.

Parental Guidance
While most of the content in this class is very simple for kids to do on their own, children will need assistance from time to time when handling scissors, glue or food that needs to be microwaved or blended. We will NOT use knives, a conventional oven, or a stove in this class.
When doing experiments or cooking, I recommend that you measure quantities for your children and put it in plastic cups. Please also pre-cut the fruit for them.
Some recipes include peanut butter and wheat. I have listed alternatives/substitues in case your child has allergies to any of those ingredients.
For practicing songs at home, I will share a Youtube link that you can use at home everyday with supurvision. However, you can also use other methods such as downloading the song or use a device for listening to the song.
You Tube: I will use a sharable screen for songs.
Google Docs / Acrobat reader / canva : I will attach some documents for you to download and print, such as song lyrics, printables and images that are necessary for crafts.
Kahoot/ Quizlet: It is not required that you create an account. You will use a code to participate in the activity. I will share the link previous to the class.
Hoopla / Amazon prime: Occasianally, I will use a sharable screen for Story Time.
Giftcuriosity: I will use a sharable screen for experiments.
Duolingo: From time to time we will use this page so students who read can practice their skills.
