¡Hola!

Come sing, move, and play games in Spanish!  We will take what we learned in “Elementary Spanish Parts 1-3”  and extend our conversations.  To be successful in this class, I recommend completing "Elementary Spanish Parts 1-3"  or, have taken 1-2 years of Spanish instruction.  In this class, students will learn concepts relating to school life such as school supplies, places in a school, and more. Students will also be able to describe themselves with positive adjectives.  We will continue to review previously learned concepts and practice mini-conversations.
