Spanish Term 2
¡Hola! My name is Señorita Irene, I am from the city of Córdoba, Spain.
I have the wonderful privilege of sharing my love of all things Spanish with the students, teaching them language skills interlinked with cultural activities through our school’s Spanish program.
This Term, I am going to focus on reviewing Spanish language across each level and making positive connections between our students and our Spanish program.
Prep
Our Preps will delve into the beautiful topic of family to coincide with their class Unit of Work.
They will explore the vocabulary related to family members and the importance of family in Spanish speaking cultures.
Also the lessons will focus on introducing them to Spanish, ensuring that their introduction to Spanish is really enjoyable.
They will engage in fun activities that promotes understanding and communication, such as listening to and singing songs, craft activities, role play and language games.
Grade 1/2
Our Grade 1 and 2 students will embark on an exciting journey in Spanish class!
They will learn how to express themselves confidently in our Spanish classroom environment, exchanging greetings with their peers and teacher, and sharing their likes and dislikes.
Additionally, they’ll have a blast playing traditional Spanish games that not only reinforce language skills but also foster teamwork and cultural appreciation.
Grade 3/4
Our Grade 3 and 4 students will develop their language skills by actively interacting with both their teacher and peers to exchange information about various aspects of their personal world, including school, home, and favourite hobbies.
Through everyday classroom exchanges, such as responding to simple questions, complimenting others, and creating short dialogues, students will build confidence in Spanish while fostering a collaborative learning environment.
Grade 5/6
Our Grade 5 and 6 students will reconnect with their Spanish language skills by actively engaging in classroom interactions and using Spanish as much as possible.
Students will explore the fascinating world of self-expression through the lens of some Spanish Artists’ self portraits.
By analysing and describing different artworks, students will not only deepen their understanding of Spanish culture but also learn how to describe themselves in Spanish.
