Welcome to our Spanish Class for the 2023-2024 School Year.

 Bienvenidos a nuestro año escolar 2023-24, Nuestro Primer dia es  el 7 de agosto. 

Estudiantes/ Students: 

Welcome to your Spanish class. I hope you are as excited as I am about learning and practicing Spanish all year. If you are in Spanish 1, As a class, we will explore different parts of the Spanish-speaking world. We will learn various forms and shapes of communication, culture, and language. Be ready to share and learn from each other. If you are one of my excellent AP Spanish Students, we will develop your Spanish professionally and culturally appropriately. We will hold each other accountable and understand how language and culture intersect. Our class will be fun, exciting, and inspirational. I will provide you with everything you need to succeed and enjoy your bilingual student experience. If you have some exposure to Spanish or your family speaks Spanish, you will also learn a lot in this class. We will discover all of the different forms and academic usage of Spanish. By the end of Spanish 1, you will have the basic skills and the ability to be successful in a bilingual environment. By the end of AP Spanish, you will be ready to join the professional world and complete the AP Spanish Exam with a passing score. I promise to give my 150% in supporting, teaching, and mentoring you; all I ask from you is to have fun and be open to learning and trying new things.

I look forward to meeting you all.  

Estoy emocionado por conocerles y aprender juntos.

Estudiantes,

It is VERY IMPORTANT that you either have your Google Classroom notifications on or that you be self-disciplined and check the Google Stream daily for important information related to assignments, announcements, comments, etc.  

I want you all to know that I am here to support your growth in learning the Spanish language and culture. Let's have a great year!

Padres/Parents, 

In Spanish class, students will have homework at least 2 days per week. We work on projects and presentations a lot in this class. One of the best ways to support your students is by encouraging them to practice their presentation and to speak as much Spanish as possible outside of class. I will provide students with different activities on our Google Classroom platform to help them develop those skills. Please encourage your students to practice on their own time.
