SPANISH NEWS

Hola South Melbourne Park Community!

Your children are currently taught 50 minutes of Spanish per week. It is challenging to master a new language within this time frame. Would you like your child to acquire more Spanish? I am excited to share my YouTube channel, ‘Spanish Fun for Juniors'.

Together with your child, on this channel you will be able to:

• acquire Spanish easily while you watch and listen to stories
• listen and read along with Maestra (myself). For an extra challenge, turn down the volume and let your child have a turn at reading. Then ask your child to tell you the story in English. 

To find the channel, Google 'Spanish Fun for Juniors' - it should look like the picture above. Subscribe and you will be notified when new videos are uploaded. 

You may also like to try my Spotify playlist 'Spanish Fun for Juniors - Maestra's Favourite Songs' and listen and learn while you drive in the car - soon the whole family will be singing along! 

Please contact me if you would like any further information.

Love, Maestra

Everyone, no matter how different from you, deserves kindness and respect, and being different gives us the opportunities to see varying perspectives, cultures and ways of being. At home, you could talk to your child about the song they are dancing to and how it connects to an aspect of celebrating diversity.
