Elementary Spanish Classes K-5
All Elementary Students K- 5 take this class once a week as an exploratory Spanish language class and are not expected to produce any written work or homework. All Spanish language is mostly practiced orally in class through use of songs, games, dances, videos, and movement activities. I will post videos shown in class that the students can access at home if they want further practice. If a student wants access to a video or song or game from class PLEASE CHECK THE ELEMENTARY TAB OF THIS WEBSITE. (left hand side). I will update these as we change themes every few weeks.
