Spanish  

The Spanish program at Middlefork School provides students with an introduction to the Spanish language that includes vocabulary, grammar, and culture of Spanish speaking countries. Students in grades First through Third meet twice weekly in two 30-minute sessions. Students actively learn and express Spanish with an emphasis in listening and speaking. Reading, and writing are also incrementally nurtured throughout their Spanish study in District 29.

While learning a new language, students explore and gain an appreciation for several aspects of culture within Spanish speaking countries - art, celebrations, cuisine, history, traditions, and geography. Students increase their executive functioning skills when learning a new language. Emphasizing the importance of communication, students are presented with opportunities to apply authentic and realistic language use in the classroom.
