¡Aprendamos español!

Learning another language is beneficial for many reasons. Research shows that children who are exposed to more than one language, especially in the early years, are creative, have a better memory, concentrate more, and have a better understanding of the world around them. When a child is given the gift of another language, it opens the door to numerous possibilities including making new friends, learning about other cultures and customs, and a future career using another language! 

Let’s Learn Spanish! is an introductory  Spanish class for young learners. This class will be divided into four lessons, with one lesson each week. Week one will include greetings ( hello,my name is...) and the numbers 0-10.  During week two, we will learn the colors red, yellow, green, and blue. Week three will consist of the parts of the body ( head, eyes, nose, mouth, ears). Week four will include pets ( dog, cat, rabbit, bird, fish). 

Each class will start with our greetings and an introduction to the specified vocabulary. Learners will see several visuals and manipulatives that reinforce the target words and will have many opportunities to hear the correct pronunciation and practice saying the words and phrases with both the teacher and with each other. We will play games during each class such as bingo, scavenger hunt, and Simon Says. At the end of each class, we will review the material and say goodbye to each other.
