Learner progress will be assessed by the teacher daily during each lesson as she sees that students are becoming comfortable, independent and fluent in their reading. Comprehension will be monitored regularly through questions and answers as well as activities on the slides that require students to demonstrate understanding. Writing will improve as students keep a regular journal that will show their progression over time. Parents can also assess their own child's progress as they become more independent during their participation in class, their own independent reading, as well as how they are using learned information and reading techniques outside of class.Class Experience

Beginner Level
*The 4:30pm EST section of this class currently meets on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays only. ▬▬▬▬▬▬ ⭐Course Overview⭐ ▬▬▬▬▬▬ In this ongoing class students will have an opportunity to practice reading at a beginning level in the Spanish language. We will focus on a new story each week from Levels A, B and C of the Reading A-Z series. These stories will follow the adventures of school-age children as they explore the world around them every day. Topics will include, family, home, school, the park, the zoo, friends, pets, the store, etc. Students will gain vocabulary and understanding that they can use to make useful connections to their lives every day. Each class will consist of some letter activities, vocabulary review, story reading, comprehension and writing. Some writing will be on the screen which will require students to be able to access their writing tools on their computer. Some writing will require a paper, pencil, crayons and/or markers at home. At Polyglots Academy, we believe that reading should be enjoyable, so we will delve into each adventure in a fun way by talking about what is happening, exploring our curiosities throughout the stories and relating what we learn to our own experiences. Students will interact with the teacher and their classmates continuously throughout the lesson through talking, writing, reading and completing activities on the slides. 📅 Are you looking for a class that meets 1x, 2x, 3x, or 4x per week? Send us a message about a class frequency change. 💬 We can also accommodate learners and families wanting full immersion vs. bilingual classes.
