This is a complete semester two Level 1 Spanish class.  Learners taking this course can expect to learn Spanish in an integrated format.  

Learners will learn how to compose and comprehend complete sentences in Spanish from day one.  Semester 2 focuses heavily on present tense verbs.  

We utilize a story telling approach to ensure that learners can not only apply vocabulary to short sentences, but also read and write fluently in Spanish.  Props, drawings, flashcards, word banks, and workbooks are used on a regular basis.  

The video portion of the class will focus on the story of the week as well as review of the homework and practiced vocabulary. 

Students are required to purchase and complete weekly assignments from My Daily Spanish- Spanish Workbook for Middle School and High School Students which correlates to current state standards.  This text includes free audio downloads to use while you complete the lessons.  

A learning packet will also be provided for students to use during the video portions of the class as well as will contain assignments for the week.  

Learners will use quizlet weekly to practice new vocabulary.  Short quizzes will be completed.  

I will also provide suggested practice games/activities from sites such as studyspanish.com, 123teachme.com, spanishlearninglab.com, spanishplayground.com, pandatree.com .  These activities require parent permission to access and are only suggested links for practice.  They do not require a login.  

We use some stories from the Cuentame Mas TPRS Curriculum for level 1 Spanish.   I have obtained permission to teach these stories in class.  

Students who complete all of the homework assignments are eligible to receive a grade for this class.  I will provide a certificate of completion upon request.  

Students who take Part 1 & 2 can be eligible for a full 1 credit Spanish certificate.  Those who complete one semester with a passing score will be eligible for a .5 credit.  Please note as a certified teacher I can provide a grade, but it's ultimately the parents responsibility to issue the credit and final grade on a transcript.
