Welcome to Advanced Spanish
Platte River Academy
2009-2010 School Year
Dear Parents and Students:
I am happy to be returning to PRA as the fourth through Eighth grade Spanish
teacher. I am planning and anticipating a year filled with challenge,
learning and excitement.
The goal of advanced Spanish is for students to be able to enter into Spanish
2 as a freshman. Students will need to commit to studying and preparing this
year in order to make a smooth transition into Spanish 2. Students will have
homework each night.
Listed below are some of the areas we will be covering this year.
1. Review verbs, time, weather, numbers classroom items, greetings and
phrases.
2. Capitulo 5A Una fiesta de cumpleanos
3. Capitulo 5B Vamos a un retaurante
4. Capitulo 6AEn mi dormitorio
5. Capitulo 6B ?Como es tu casa?
6. Capitulo 7A ?Cuanto cuesta?
7. Capituo 7B Que regalo
8. Capitulo 8A De vacaciones
9. Capitulo 8B Ayudando a la comunidad
10. Reading several short novels
Thank you for your continued support for the Spanish program at PRA. I look
forward to a new and exciting year!
Sincerely,
Senorita Burke
