My Students
I teach at a rural high school where the whole student body is about 800-1000 students grades 9-12. Some of my students have life goals of going to college, and I help them prepare to be college-ready by teaching some of the basics of the Spanish language. Another portion has life goals of learning a trade, and learning Spanish helps them be marketable in their trade by being able to communicate in a foreign language.
Being bilingual is the future of American job market.
My Project
Last school year I was given the assignment of a textbook adoption year. I decided not to purchase a textbook because I feel like textbooks are only useful for two things: vocabulary and grammar. And they are just expensive! Also, with the pandemic last year learning has become more virtual so textbooks do not work virtually. I have found several classroom materials/lessons that I like on Teachers Pay Teachers, and I would like a gift card so I can purchase materials/lessons for my students. I feel like the best way to learn a language is to have a mix of grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing.
