3rd Quarter Spanish - a note from the teacher
Explore Spanish at Zion
Saludos! My name is Carla Rutledge, and I am excited to teach fifth through eighth grade Spanish classes at Zion this year. Spanish will be held two periods each week for this quarter only. Please ask your son or daughter to share his or her Spanish name with you.
Exploratory Spanish will include: greetings, numbers, colors, days of the week, months of the year, the Spanish alphabet, and general conversation. Our country of focus will be Mexico. Students will make a Mexican craft, learn about cultural differences, and attend a fiesta at the end of the quarter.
Zion students will receive a Spanish academic letter grade on their report card for this quarter only. Since there are no tests or quizzes, grades will be based upon participation, daily work, and oral pronunciation. It is my hope that each child enjoys learning Spanish- a fun and easy language that is becoming increasingly spoken all around the world!
Please feel free to contact me at sncrutledge@msn.com for more information. Con mucho gusto!
