Class Goals, Homework, Assessment
How do group classes work?
-
Group classes will consist of 2-4 families that I form from around the country who are available on the same day/time for live instruction-- note: I am located in the Central Time Zone (CT)
-
The class minimum is 2 students (from different families), the limit is around 8 students for students 7 and up, up to 6 for students 2-6)
-
My goal will be to have ages roughly overlap
Goals:
-
Students will acquire and be able to use dozens and dozens of high-frequency Spanish words (with new words every week)
-
By the end of a school year, students will have several stories they can comfortably read (or understand, for pre-readers) in Spanish
-
Students will comfortably use the present tense with vocabulary we have learned and have some exposure to the past tense (subsequent classes will include more tenses)
Homework: Recommended 30-60 minutes/week
-
Review typed class story (sent via Google Doc the first week of class)
-
Listen to curriculum song with lyrics
-
Reading activities/games through Textivate (upon request)
-
Worksheet pages/PDFs
Assessment:
Informal assessments are utilized in every class to identify student strengths and weaknesses in vocabulary and grammar.
See the Preparing for Class page for more information.
