This class is taught in English.
Students will enjoy learning what some have said is the second most widely spoken language in the United States. We will follow a schedule of topics to learn, which will help children use what they learn. By the end of the course, students will have expanded their knowledge with the topics of chores, weekend activities / hobbies, animals, food and clothing / currency. The content builds upon the approximate equivalence of Soar with Spanish 1. Also, we want to create opportunities to practice Spanish and focus on people.
