Mission
Spanish Curriculum Saint Raphael is fortunate to have a strong Spanish program in place. All children who attend Saint Raphael School have the opportunity to experience Spanish in the classroom. Grades K-2 focus on the basic aspects of the Spanish language. They will touch on themes such as colors, the nuclear family, weather, time, and much more. In the teaching of each of these themes, incorporation of materials such as flashcards, posters, music, and children’s videos will compose the curriculum in the younger grades. Spanish is taught once a week. Grades 3-5 touch on many of the above activities but in a more advanced stage. Oral and written expression will be assessed through the incorporation of grammar, vocabulary, and conversation. These aspects become more and more vital in grasping the concept of a second language as the years go on. Spanish is taught twice a week. Students at all levels will be taught the Hispanic culture with the incorporation of videos, newspapers, magazine articles, celebrations and presentations. In learning the aspects of another culture, the students should find a greater appreciation of their own cultures and for other diverse cultures all around the world. Texts: Grades 4 and 5 Mc Graw Hill/Wright Group, 2005 ¡Viva el español !/¡Hola!and ¿Qué tal? Grades K-3 Teacher Generated Materials and workbooks.
