五年级西班牙语

As an addition, LES is incorporating Spanish as a second language to fifth grade. Fifth grade is the transition year from elementary to middle school Spanish. The focus of our language curriculum remains in the knowledge of the Spanish Language (写作, 语法, oral and 理解 components) as well as the culture of Latin American Countries and Spain.Reading and 写作 activities are used frequently in order to properly prepare students for middle school next year. In order to eventually become fluent in a language it is important that these skill levels be attained and practiced. 西班牙语课每周上两次. Fifth grade Spanish is a pass/fail class, taking into consideration the following:

课堂上的尊重在教室里我们都是语言学习者. A safe environment in the classes that encourages students to express themselves in Spanish. 西班牙语是一门互助性、合作性和参与性很强的课程.

家庭作业我们将在课堂上完成大部分的写作/艺术工作. 然而，一些未完成的工作可能需要完成作为家庭作业. 家庭作业要及时完成.

努力与参与: Spanish class takes place two times a week for 45-minute blocks of time.西班牙语以互动式教学, 真实的, audio-visual way that completely engages the students in their learning of foreign languages. The primary reason we learn another language is so that we can communicate with others; therefore, 学生需要成为积极主动的学习者.

成绩(通过/失败): 学生的表现是基于以下几点:家庭作业, 参与, 努力, 口头及书面工作, 尊重班级和学生. Each of these areas is modeled throughout the school year so that students have a clear understanding of how they can achieve success in Spanish.一致性, support and respect is the foundation of strong growth in the knowledge and understanding of the Spanish language for students.

也, for a better understanding of Spanish I would like to include technology by using free applications such as:

Duolingo应用

ConjuGato应用

Spotify的应用

Autentico App(来自课本)

谷歌艺术文化应用
