¡Bienvenidos! Welcome Back!

¡Buenos días! I hope all students and parents had a restful and relaxing summer. I am excited to be starting this fresh new year with some fantastic veteran 7th and 8th graders, and I am thrilled to be meeting my incoming 6th graders.


The first week of school we will be reviewing the routines and procedures in our classroom. We are also reviewing content from last year and we will use that prior knowledge as a springboard for a productive 2015-2016 Spanish year. In my previous post, I have provided links to some Spanish websites that students utilized last year and are also ones that my new 6th graders will find very accessible. I am going to strongly encourage students to take 10-15 minutes for the next week or so, to review. I am hoping that the games will jog some memories so all students will start this year in the right mindset and in a good place.

I am also providing the standards for foreign language so parents/students can access what curriculum looks like at the national level. If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them. Here's to a great year!
