Spanish 

Written by Nelson Pasten

Hola y bienvenidos a Agua Salada 

 

Welcome back to onsite learning.

During my classes, my students  not only learn about the Spanish language but also the culture of various Spanish-speaking countries. Since I love to make learning Spanish fun, my students will continue their learning playing games, singing songs, reading books, dancing, telling stories, having access to technology, and more in order to encourage, challenge and motivate them to learn the language.

Activities that our students have been participating in the past weeks. (All Grades)

  • Speaking and listening; asking and answering questions.
  • Drama-related activities including role-playing.
  • Listening and singing Spanish songs.
  • Using hand gestures; indicating, pointing and touching.
  • Participating in a variety of games aimed at encouraging the students to talk among themselves, have a go, and help them remember.
  • Using Spanish apps on iPads and watching Spanish videos.
