My Project

Our Chicago students are eager, engaged learners that just started learning Spanish and the many associated cultures that span North America, South America, Europe, and Africa! While our students come from diverse backgrounds, this is the first time they are studying a language in addition to English.

Students are learning how to understand, read, write, and speak Spanish through culturally rich, authentic, collaborative learning activities and stories!

While our activities are engaging, we are currently using old, long, narrow computer tables with holes in them that are not conducive to student collaboration. Our students need and deserve clean, functional tables that are conducive to team learning. Help transform our room into a fully functional, collaborative World Language classroom!
