Welcome to 2nd – 5th grade Spanish. I am very excited to start a new year full of learning activities and lots of fun. This year we will continue implementing in our class Descubre el Español new K-5 Spanish as a World Language Program, K- 5th grade students will be learning through the textbook and videos as well as using their workbooks to practice taught lessons.
Program components: Textbook, workbook, biblioteca temática, ebooks, videos, Descubre online etc.
Grading criteria: Second to Fifth grade students' grading criteria is as follows:
Grading Policy: A. 90-100 B. 80-89 C. 75-79 D. 70-74 F. 69 or less Students need to follow classroom and school rules. Participation and classwork should be completed and turned in every class or the following class. Students will miss 10 points if they don't turn in assignments on time.
The evaluation is permanent, students will be given tests, quizzes, and pop quizzes in every quarter.
If a student scores less than 70 in a quiz, test, or any other given assignment the student needs to discuss with the teacher, his/her options (extra credit work or retaking the test) to make up the failing score. The highest score will be 70.
Thank you for the opportunity to work jointly to help your child to have a successful school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely,
Ms. La Rosa Spanish teacher jlarosa@stmarys-temple.org
