Students, please make sure your textbook is covered. Write your name in your textbook and workbook. Fifth grade does not have a workbook.

Please check the website daily for homework assignments. If you don't see an assignment for the day we meet, that means you don't have homework that day.

Remember to be prepared! Bring your supplies to class every day! You will need your textbook, workbook, notebook, two sharpened pencils, and homework.

Course Information:
Students will be introduced to the Spanish language and the culture of Spanish-speaking countries. Students will perform the most basic functions of the language and become familiar with some elements of its culture.

Students in all grades will study the culture, its products (e.g., songs, games, foods), perspectives (e.g., attitudes, values, beliefs), and practices (patterns of social interaction). We will acquire some insight into how languages and cultures work by comparing the target language and culture(s) to our own.

Supplies:
pen or pencil
1” binder with 3 dividers (I. Notes/Classwork, II, Handouts, III. Homework)
1 pack of 3 x 5 cards (please bring one card each class period)
