Spanish class will have a year full of learning not only how to speak a foreign language, but also about a culture that is very exciting and complex. We do cultural lessons along with grammar, reading and speech. This year we will be working completely on Google Classroom. This is very exciting because we will be able to utilize some great online resources. Our class will be assigned several cultural projects that will allow our students to learn how Spanish speaking countries celebrate several holidays. These projects will give my students a learning experience that will enrich their understanding of the Spanish culture. We will also have a big project at the end of the school year were they will learn about a Spanish speaking countries and share with their class what they learned.

  • In Spanish 1, students will be introduced to the Spanish language and the culture of Spanish speaking countries. Students should achieve some proficiency in the language through a variety of communicative activities that focus on developing reading, writing, speaking and listening skills in Spanish.  By studying Spanish and Hispanic countries and their people, students will also gain an appreciation for their unique cultures and customs. This class will lay the groundwork for the more advanced Spanish 2 class that these students will be required to take next year.

  • In Spanish 2, students will review and expand upon the knowledge previously learned in Spanish 1 while simultaneously being introduced to new material.  Students should achieve a high proficiency in the language through a variety of communicative activities that focus on developing reading, writing, speaking and listening skills in Spanish.  By studying Spanish and Hispanic countries and their people, students will also gain an appreciation for their unique cultures and customs.

The staff of Brookeland ISD believes that ALL students can learn.  We believe that our school’s purpose is to educate all students to high levels of academic performance while fostering positive growth in social/emotional behaviors and attitudes.  We accept the responsibility to teach all students in a challenging, meaningful way that allows each child to become a literate, contributing adult.  Brookeland ISD is a center for sound learning, academic discovery, and the pursuit of wisdom through advanced course offerings, high academic standards and aggressive, innovative instruction.  The students of Brookeland ISD will excel and compete academically with any students in the country.
