This is an advanced second year Spanish course designed to build on first year high school 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 vocabulary games including but not limited to; Kahoot, Quizlet 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. Specifically, Students will continue to read, write and speak using tenses from previous quarters as well as learning to future tense. Students will expand on vocabulary related to making plans and holiday celebrations. Students will expand the ability to speak, read write and listen in Spanish while exploring the following concepts; Week 1 - Animals extended Week 2- Animal habitats and numbers to 1000 Week 3- Planning a celebration Week 4- Holiday celebrations and how they vary from the U.S. and countries in Latin America (project my favorite holiday) Week 5- Future tense with regular verbs Week 6- Future tense irregular verbs Week 7-Reading and interpreting a short story in the target language Week 8- Review of the preterite, imperfect and future tenses by writing a story using the past and future tenses
