US Grade Kindergarten - 3
Bienvenidos! Welcome! In this 4 week self-paced class, we will learn to sound out words in Spanish. Each week will include videos, practice activities, and something extra! We will start with individual sounds, then move onto syllables and special sounds. After that we will practice sounding out words before finishing up with reading full sentences, a story, and even have a go at some of the longest words in Spanish! The main purpose of this class is pronunciation, but new vocabulary is included! I always say what the words we use translate to so that learners know what they're saying. This class is perfect for brand new beginners, or those that just need some practice with pronunciation. The goal is for students to leave this class feeling confident in their ability to decode and read any word they encounter in Spanish.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to pronounce Spanish words with confidence.
Syllabus
4 Lessons
over 4 WeeksLesson 1:
Alphabet
The first step in learning to pronounce words in Spanish is to learn the individual letters and their sounds. In this lesson, we will do just that. Once you feel confident in them, there is a set of slides for you to look at and upload an audio/video recording of yourself for feedback from me. 1 assignment

Lesson 2:
Syllables
Now that you know the individual letter sounds, the next step is to combine them to create syllables. We will cover how to build them as well as go over the few trickier combinations you are likely to encounter. Once you have learned them, there is a practice activity for you to complete. 1 assignment
