About my class...

I teach Spanish to all grades here at St. Bernadette.  I start in Kindergarten. They learn simple vocabulary words and learn to put together simple sentences.  As they get older, we build on vocabulary learned in previous years, and begin to put longer, more complicated sentences together.  They learn greetings and some other common phrases. Beginning in the 6th grade, the students start getting a grade for Spanish class.  They will begin using the textbook, Avancemos, which is a great lead into high school Spanish classes.  The textbook work will be supplemented by a program called Duolingo for reinforcement throughout the week.  The 6th - 8th grades also begin the class with a prayer. The link to the prayers is in Gradelink.

I also teach a computer class to grades 1 – 6.  We spend some time on keyboarding skills, then progress into other programs, focusing a lot on Google apps like Sheets, Docs, Slides, etc.  We discuss Internet Safety and being a good Digital Citizen. We follow the Ohio standards. This is a dynamic class that focuses on the ever-advancing world of technology.

I am looking forward to a great year here at St. Bernadette.
