¡Bienvenidos!
Class description
As with all Tierra themes, the weekly lessons are centered around story-telling with corresponding listening, speaking, reading, and writing tasks for students in years 5-8.
This theme’s story is El nabo gigante (The Giant Turnip).
Your family will enjoy learning a repertoire of content for the warm-up recitation including calendar work, scripture verse and poem recitation, a hymn and folksong, and useful phrases.
Theme 2 also introduces a visual alphabet alongside pronunciation practice.
How do the online classes correspond with the Theme 2 Materials?
I (Katrín) will follow the Teacher’s Lesson Guide for Theme 2 of the Tierra Curriculum. I will meet with your students via zoom in realtime classes for 8 weeks. This will take your students through the storytelling component of Theme 2 (the central component of all themes).
Optional activities for weeks 9-12
As with all Tierra themes, there are 12 weeks of lessons. After the final class, you will be given access to 4 videos that provide pre-recorded lessons for the final 4 weeks of Theme 2 if you (the parent-teacher) would like to complete these on your own at home. These final 4 videos offer additional practice with verbs introduced in the story (told during weeks 1-8) and a prompt for a Spanish-language real-life task: Making vegetable soup!
