😀 🤩🥳 Come join me, as we discover how fun learning can be! This course will run for 30 minute periods each lesson. It is the perfect opportunity to share meaningful learning experiences to your energetic learner, in order for them to continue speaking Spanish and working on their pronunciation. 🎵🎤🧩🔤📚Children thrive on routine because it provides a sense of comfort and safety that allows them to be more open to learning. This class will bring your learner a safe learning environment and a routine that will include songs, interactive games, word of the week, number of the week, shape of the week and theme of the week! The class will be taught exclusively in Spanish through music, dance, books and videos. Students will be encouraged to participate in reading, dancing, singing, and writing; instilling confidence in them as they practise their Spanish speaking skills. Students will improve their Spanish vocabulary, pronunciation, speaking and listening skills, and foster a sense of community. ⭐️⭐️Please keep in mind that this class is not for beginner or intermediate level students, but for students who already speak Spanish at home, and want a chance to solidify their knowledge by practising.⭐️⭐️ ✅All students will be muted when needed, to minimize background noise. Please ensure to spend some time with your learner, teaching the mute and unmute features as I am unable to unmute them. Or I ask that you sit with your learner during class in order to provide that support. I want to make sure every learner gets a chance to speak and ask questions when it is their turn. 🥳 I am so excited to have your child be a part of my class! 📕📗📘Examples of stories read in class: "Dino va a la escuela (Dino goes to school)" By: Jeimee Vorasane "Dino no quiere dormir (Dino doesn't want to go to bed)" By: Jeimee Vorasane Weekly lesson breakdown: (August 1-5) Theme: Dinosaurs.

👩🏻🏫❤️I am a certified and experienced elementary school teacher. I continue teaching children ages 4-9 in the public school system.
❤️🪴🌳The activities offered in my classroom help children transition from one part of the day to the next. My students feel involved as they learn important skills; like taking turns to speak, and listening to others. Children who take part in this course, will discover that learning can be fun and exciting, as they practise and improve their Spanish and make new friends.
🎵🎤🧐 Singing is a valuable teaching tool and an integral part of my lessons since I have found that learning a new concept through a song can be more enjoyable for children. Using songs has helped my learners improve their listening skills and pronunciation; and has been useful for teaching vocabulary and sentence structures. Music offers many advantages for learning languages. Studies have shown that listening to a song and humming along can help with language learning! Listening to music also helps with memorisation because singing new words makes them easier to remember. And oh yes... I love to sing!Reviews
