2012-‐2013 CCA MIDDLE SCHOOL SPANISH PROGRAM
¡BIENVENIDOS A LA CLASE DE ESPAÑOL! ¡Hola! ¡Bienvenidos a la clase de español! Here at CCA, in our Middle School Spanish classes (Grades Five – Eight), we focus on communication and actively using the language as we develop the competencies delineated in the National Standards for Foreign Language Learning (COMMUNICATION, CULTURES, CONNECTIONS, COMPARISONS, AND COMMUNITES). We also utilize curriculum and teaching methodologies that will also develop students’ growth in meeting the Colorado Model Content Standards for Foreign Language (LISTENING, SPEAKING, READING, WRITING AND CULTURAL LITERACY). We use predominantly Spanish in the classroom and implement a variety of exercises, activities and games that engage different learning styles and that appeal to the students. CCA middle school students build upon the vocabulary and grammatical foundation that they have developed using the “Viva el Español” curriculum in grades Three and Four. They continue on their quest to becoming confident, effective, bilingual communicators. We use the very comprehensive curriculum, “Realidades 1”, which is written based upon the National Standards for Foreign Language Learning. “Realidades 1”, which is used in various high schools, focuses on communication and on helping students to meet our goal of developing the Standards’ competencies. The curriculum is designed for all students and learning styles and presents language learning in a comprehensible way via meaningful context. We do a lot of interactive activities together to facilitate feeling comfortable using Spanish. Our goal is for our Middle School Students to complete “Realidades 1” by the end of Eighth Grade and to be able to move comfortably into Spanish 2 or above in high school! Below, please review the National Standards and how “Realidades 1” meets these standards:
