Bienvenue! Huan Yin! Bienvenido!
Bonjour! Ni Hao! Hola! Welcome to the Foreign Language page!
Every student will be taking foreign language this year. The first quarter will be French, the second quarter will be Chinese, and there will be a full semester of Spanish after Christmas until the end of the year. Students will learn basic vocabulary, pharases, songs, games and facts about the culture and country in each language. The upper grades will also spend time on grammar and sentance structure.
Pre-K - 6th grade.
Pre - K - 1st grade - 30 minutes per week
2nd - 4th grade - 45 minutes a week
5th - 6th grade - 2 classes per week- 45 minute each
This page will show what we are doing in foreign language, offer sites to help with practicing at home, and more! As the year goes on, I will be adding more to this page.
Enjoy!
