includedClass Experience
🌞 "Sabor de Verano" is a four-day summer camp designed specifically for children aged 13 - 18 (middle and high school students) offering a lively journey into Spanish language and culture. Each day for an hour, we'll focus on unique themes to deepen their understanding of the Spanish-speaking world. 🌍 Monday - World Travel: We'll virtually 'travel' to a Spanish-speaking country, delving into its history, customs, and unique dialects. The lesson will be followed by an interactive game to practice new vocabulary and expressions. 🗺️ 💃 Tuesday - Dance: We'll immerse ourselves in the captivating world of Spanish dance. After discussing a traditional dance and its cultural significance, we'll get moving with a fun practice session. 🕺 🎶 Wednesday - Music: We'll explore the rich musical heritage of the Spanish-speaking world, learning a famous song, and discussing its lyrics and cultural context. A music-based interactive activity will cap off the day. 🎵 🍽️ Thursday - Cooking: We'll delve into the fascinating food culture of the Spanish-speaking world with a light cooking demonstration of a simple traditional recipe. Parental guidance is recommended for younger learners who want to try the recipe at home. 🥘 The camp will be conducted primarily in Spanish, with English used for clarity when necessary. My teaching style is interactive and engaging, ensuring learning is both fun and memorable. Each day's instruction will be followed by an activity or game that encourages learners to apply their language skills and interact with each other. The pacing is supportive, making sure each learner feels comfortable and encouraged. "Sabor de Verano" is the perfect summer camp for middle and high school students ages 13- 18 seeking a fun and enriching Spanish language experience. 🎉 Embark on a week of world travel, learning, and cultural exploration with us! 🚀 PARENT NOTE: Our cooking day will be a fun, hands-on experience in the kitchen, but it does require some basic cooking skills. While we won't be undertaking advanced culinary techniques, students should be comfortable with using measuring cups/spoons, cutting fruit, and using a frying pan. If necessary, students are welcome to have a helper for supervision during this class, as long as the helper remains off-camera. We're keeping the dish a surprise, but rest assured it will be a delightful introduction to traditional Spanish cuisine. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please feel free to message me before enrolling.
