Spanish

Students use Spanish to listen, speak, read, and write in everyday situations. They practice key words and expressions, act out dialogues, and produce simple texts to share with classmates.  

As they explore stories, songs, and traditions from Spanish-speaking countries, they take part in collaborative projects that build confidence, curiosity, and appreciation for different cultures.
