Students will broaden their vocabulary of Brazilian Portuguese, by practicing specific and themed vocabulary activities. They will use these words in sentences throughout class, allowing them to grow in their understanding of the language, while simultaneously having fun and engaging in energetic ways. Students will practice a song, which will be cycled every month, in order to increase their knowledge of the Brazilian culture and musical rhythms. This will also allow them a chance of working towards a specific and measurable goal: singing through the whole song by the end of the month! 

With over 15 years experience in Musical Theatre (including touring with Broadway!) Ms. Ana has the skills necessary to engage students while bringing creativity and music into the classroom. As a native Brazilian (from Belo Horizonte, MG) Teacher Ana will be an excellent resource into proper pronunciation. She has also been involved in teaching a second language (including French and ESL) for over 10 years. 

Youtube videos and song lyrics will be used to practice and review class songs.
