My Project

¡Hola!

In this class, students will use books to open up the wonderful world of Spanish Language and Culture!

I have chosen books that will support learning of vocabulary and culture. As a new program, we are starting from ground zero and need new materials to support immersion into the Spanish language and culture. Students will not only learn a new language but appreciate a new culture. Students will learn to be culturally responsive and respect others that might be different from themselves!

¡Gracias por tu ayuda!- Thanks for your help!
